Silver Buffalo Berry vs Giants Heart Haskap (Honeyberry)Shepherdia argentea Lonicera caerulea Giants Heart 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 Giants Heart Haskap is a late-ripening shrub that blooms with small white flowers and produces large, firm blue berries that are ready for harvest in late July. Their taste is typically described as something between a raspberry and a blueberry. SILVER BUFFALO BERRY QUICK FACTSGIANTS HEART HASKAP (HONEYBERRY) QUICK FACTS
