Thiessen Saskatoon (Serviceberry) vs Northland BlueberryAmelanchier alnifolia Thiessen Vaccinium x Northland SOLD OUT SOLD OUT (new stock expected: later this season) 
Thiessen Saskatoon is a deciduous shrub that produces delicious edible fruit. It is one of the most productive saskatoon varieties. Its fruit is great in pies, preserves or eating fresh.
Northland Blueberry is the hardiest of the half-high highbush blueberries. It's also the best looking. In fact, it is frequently planted as an ornamental. Northland Blueberry produces large quantities of medium-size berries that taste amazing but are on the softer side, which matters to some people.
