Abundant harvests of large honeyberries!

The Borealis Honeyberry quickly produces fragrant white flowers that develop into sweet and tart berries, reminiscent of blueberries, and ripen about two weeks before strawberries. Enjoy these plump berries fresh, frozen, or transform them into luxurious preserves or fruit liqueur.

This plant features dense foliage with an upright growth habit, making it an attractive addition to any garden. Exceptionally cold-hardy, Borealis Honeyberries can withstand temperatures as low as -50ºF, making them ideal for regions where extreme cold limits fruit cultivation. These berries typically ripen in late May.

To bear fruit, the Borealis Honeyberry requires cross-pollination with another honeyberry plant of similar bloom time.
