Indigo Treat Haskap (Honeyberry) vs Cherry Prinsepia
Prinsepia sinensis
Lonicera caerulea Indigo Treat
CUSTOM GROW
NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON - MIGHT RETURN
Cherry Prinsepia is an attractive, cold hardy shrub with thorny stems and a rounded shape.
Primarily used for its shrub and hedge characteristics, Cherry Prinsepia is also grown for its ornamental fruit. Tart in flavor, the red berries are edible and enjoyed by birds and humans alike.
If deer are an issue on your property, try planting Cherry Prinsepia in a tight row to create a dense hedge to deter them.
Indigo Treat has fruit similar in size and firmness to their Tundra variety, making it suitable for commercial production or your home garden.
Indigo Treat, like the Borealis Haskap, does not self-pollinate well. We recommend another variety, such as Honeybee or Berry Blue Honeyberry, be planted at a minimum 1:8 ratio with it to boost fruit production. Many experts suggest the highest Haskap yield comes from fields planted with the most varieties.
Due to stronger interest in newer cultivars, 2015 will be our last year selling Indigo Treat.
