Common Blueberry vs Blue Treasure Haskap (Honeyberry)Vaccinium myrtilloides Lonicera caerulea Blue Treasure NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON SOLD OUT 
Common Blueberry isn't as large, pretty, or high yielding as the other varieties we carry. But Common Blueberry is our only blueberry that will survive in plant hardiness zones 1A to 2B. So if you happen to live in one of these zones, this is the variety for you.
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. COMMON BLUEBERRY QUICK FACTSBLUE TREASURE HASKAP (HONEYBERRY) QUICK FACTS
