Boreal Beauty Haskap (Honeyberry) vs Patriot Blueberry
Vaccinium x Patriot
Lonicera caerulea Boreal Beauty
NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON
SOLD OUT
The Patriot Blueberry offers the largest fruit of all the early season blueberries and thrives in an acidic soil with a low pH. With fruit that can easily grow to the size of a quarter, you'll be known for having the largest blueberries for miles. The Patriot Blueberry is ideal for fresh eating, baking, and preserving. Cold hardy and self-pollinating, the Patriot Blueberry is also resistant to root rot.
Boreal Beauty Haskap produces sweet/tart berries that have a great flavour. The flavour of Haskaps is generally described as a cross between a blueberry and a raspberry. Boreal Beast Haskaps are well suited to fresh eating, freezing, baking, and preserves.
The berries are heavy, firm, and have a great branch hold. They are firm enough to withstand mechanical harvesting.
For optimal fruit production, cross-pollination is required. Haskaps need to be planted with a compatible variety. Compatibility is influenced by both bloom time and genetics.
Boreal Beauty Haskap is a late-pollinating variety that pairs well with Boreal Beast.
