Description

The Blue Moon™ Honeyberry is a must-have for northern gardeners!

Grow blueberry-like fruit without acid soil. These noninvasive members of the honeysuckle family produce clusters of unique, elongated berries with a high level of antioxidants and a sweet-tart blueberry flavor that is good for fresh eating or making preserves.

Honeyberries are long-lasting plants — a life span of up to 50 years! Upright growth habit. These berry plants are very cold-hardy, thriving where traditional berries cannot. Ripens in late May, early June. For this specimen to produce, it’ll need a different honeyberry plant that blooms around the same time to pollinate it.
