Boreal Blizzard Honeyberry

Lonicera caerula var. edulis

The 'Boreal' varieties are recently released form the University of Saskatchewan, selected for improved berry size, yield and flavor. Yes!

Blizzard has VERY large berries with excellent sweet zingy flavor. Good resistance to powdery Mildew. Late flowering. It cross pollinates with Tundra, Indigo Gem, Indigo Treat, Boreal Beast and Boreal Beauty.

Long valued in their native Eastern Siberia, honeyberries (AKA haskaps) produce tasty, elongated blue berries, great for fresh eating or processing. Super hardy and promising berry, with few disease or pest problems. One of the first berries, ripening in June! Two different varieties are needed for pollination. Plants grow 4-6’ tall.
