Silver Buffalo Berry vs Boreal Blizzard Haskap (Honeyberry)Shepherdia argentea Lonicera caerulea Boreal Blizzard SOLD OUT SOLD OUT
Silver Buffalo Berry is a cold hardy, ornamental shrub that is commonly used in the first row of shelterbelts instead of caragana or lilac. It features subtle yellow flowers, smooth grey bark, and red fruit. On occasion orange fruit is produced and rarely a yellow fruit. Please note: we regularly collect the rare yellow and orange fruit to use for our seed source.
Boreal Blizzard Haskap has the largest and heaviest berries of any haskap cultivar we offer. Both the plant itself and its berries are robust, making mechanical harvesting more effective. SILVER BUFFALO BERRY QUICK FACTSBOREAL BLIZZARD HASKAP (HONEYBERRY) QUICK FACTS
