These honeysuckles are extremely hardy and early fruiting. The flower is hardy to -8°C and the fruit is ready to harvest the third week of June. The fruit taste has been described as a combination of blueberries and raspberries and has a \"melt in the mouth\" texture! Produce a very small seed that is not noticeable when eating. Known for its health benefits in both Europe and Japan for their antioxidant properties, but also for their unique flavour! Haskap has the potential to be a huge commercial cropâ€“but is ideal for the home gardener too! A naturally low shrub, 4 to 6ft. should require relatively low maintenance. These improved strains have been developed by the University of Saskatchewan! One each of Boreal Blizzard and Boreal Beauty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWill begin bearing fruit in 2-3 years.

Berries begin to change colours in early to mid June to early July and are ripe 7 to 10 days later during a normal year. Once they become completely purple, wait a few days for them to fully ripen. A good check for ripeness is to bite one in half. If it is green inside, it is not ripe. When ripe the interior should be red. When unripe, berries are slightly bitter and may have a grass-like flavour or mild astringency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMore Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #008000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ttseeds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/growinghaskapinCanada.pdf\" style=\"color: #008000;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #008000;\"\u003eGrowing Haskap in Canada\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Select Seedling Nursery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42752796033108,"sku":"8100A","price":32.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2241\/9163\/files\/8100.jpg?v=1765405953","url":"https:\/\/collection-import-export.myshopify.com\/products\/borealhaskapcollecion","provider":"collection-import-export","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
