Blue Treasure Haskap (Honeyberry) vs Red Mammoth Raspberry
Rubus sp. SK Red Mammoth
Lonicera caerulea Blue Treasure
SOLD OUT
NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON
Developed by the University of Saskatchewan Fruit Program, SK. Red Mammoth was a high yielding and firm variety released in 1999. It produces distinctively large bright red berries about 1 inch wide. It is also more cold hardy than older raspberry cultivars. Red Mammoth is firm which makes it suitable for commercial production and sweeter than Boyne. Floricane.
Needs to be trellised as canes are not as sturdy as other varieties.
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.
Blue Treasure is a late pollinating variety. Pair with other late pollinators to have a higher yield.
Kawai is a great companion variety.
