Description:
Abundant harvests of large berries. Fragrant white flowers quickly give way to sweet and tart, plump berries with a taste similar to blueberries. Harvest about two weeks before strawberries. Eat them fresh, freeze them, or make a batch of luxurious preserves or fruit liqueur. Plants are densely foliated and have a nice upright growth habit. Cold-hardy. Can take temperatures of up to -50ºF and are a favorite in regions where the cold prohibits many fruiting plants. Early-bearing. Ripens in late May. Needs a different variety of haskap as a pollinator |
