Blue Moose Honeyberry Plant
Description
Blue Moose Honeyberries are large, chewy berries are great for snacking!
Sweeter than other honeyberry varieties, with a nice, dense bite. Curved berries are about 1” long and are packed with superfood antioxidants.
Honeyberries like rich, balanced soil containing humus/compost, with a neutral pH. Mature size: 5’ tall and wide, a nice edible landscape addition. After a couple of years, bushes will provide 8-10 lbs. of berries each. No pruning is needed as the bushes have a natural dome shape and dense structure. Ripens mid-June to mid-July.
For this specimen to produce, it’ll need a different honeyberry plant that blooms around the same time to pollinate it.
Zones 2-8 and Zone 9 in California.
