Edible Haskap Honeysuckle
Lonicera kamtschatica
These Haskap Honeysuckles lost their tags. They could be any of the following varieties - Indigo Gem, Indigo Treat, or Tundra. They need to be paired with Berry Blue Haskap for pollination. These compact, small pretty European bushes are our first fruits to ripen at the nursery. Very hardy, they thrive in Siberia. The flowers are not showy or scented like a honeysuckle vine but the fruits are good. Blue, tart and flavorful, the fruits ripen before strawberries. Can be shy producers in areas prone to late frosts. Also known as Honeyberry. Zone 3-7. Space 4' circle
