More Info
Honeyberries are a very hardy and unique small shrub related to Honeysuckle but with sweet and tasty fruit. Native to Eastern Siberia, the Russian Far East, and Northern Japan, they are valued for their tasty, blueberry-like fruit. They are also extremely early ripening, often two weeks before strawberries. And finally, they are exceptionally hardy handling temperatures to minus 40 degrees F., or below. They are great for fresh eating, juicing, and preserves. To deter birds, use mylar flash tape or cover plants with netting. Powdery mildew is common fungal disease that affects Honeyberry plants, but doesn’t cause significant damage.
