Description
An easy-to-grow alternative to blueberries! Plants are compact, deciduous shrubs with soft, green foliage and delicate, cream-white flowers that appear in early spring. Great option for borders and edible landscape designs – even suitable for growing in containers. Large, deep-blue fruit is sweet tart with wild-berry notes. Contains high levels of antioxidants and vitamin C. Enjoy fresh, in jellies and jams, or homemade berry pies. Cold-hardy. Ripens in late May to early June.
For this specimen to produce, it’ll need a different honeyberry plant that blooms around the same time to pollinate it.
