Silver Buffalo Berry vs Blue Stuart Haskap (Honeyberry)Shepherdia argentea Lonicera caerulea Blue Stuart 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.
The Blue Stuart Haskap is a fruit-bearing shrub that produces medium-sized, oval-shaped and sweet berries. Their taste is typically described as something between a raspberry and a blueberry. The berries are ready for harvest through June and July, and are of medium firmness. SILVER BUFFALO BERRY QUICK FACTSBLUE STUART HASKAP (HONEYBERRY) QUICK FACTS
