Silver Buffalo Berry vs Blue Treasure Haskap (Honeyberry)Shepherdia argentea Lonicera caerulea Blue Treasure 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.
Blue Treasure Haskap is a late season cultivar, ideal for cooler climates, and a favorite from Berries Unlimited. The berries are delectably sweet and ideal for fresh eating, but can also be made into jam, juice, and wine. SILVER BUFFALO BERRY QUICK FACTSBLUE TREASURE HASKAP (HONEYBERRY) QUICK FACTS
