Description
New release from the University of Saskatchewan for 2017!
Also known as Honeyberries or Blue Honeysuckle, Canadian Haskap are superior to any other Honeyberries with sweeter, wild Blueberry flavour and larger, fleshier fruit not unlike oversize Blueberries. The plant themselves are extremely cold tolerant and these are a great fruit alternative for cold climates. Cross-pollination is required.
Boreal Beauty fruits are heavy, firm, mostly oval, and hold onto branches with just the right amount of force and taste great. Bushes are strong, upright growers and show no signs of mildew. Very productive! Almost all large-fruited haskap cause branches to bend over, but not ‘Boreal Beauty’, her branches remain strong and upright. Another member of the Boreal series that flowers and ripens later than previous UofS cultivars. Currently only compatible with Boreal Beast.
3″ potted qualifies for shipping. No shipping for #2 potted.
