@@ryam8962 I bought them locally from here, Finland. It's a good thing I did, they're like 30 bucks a piece now! Easy to get rooting, so I'll be sure to multiply this year.
@@zydsiegelinntalschmiede845 they all survived this winter, and even the ones eaten by moles came back. I have 5 varieties, the shape of the bush varies quite a bit.
Not sure what the variety is but I buy these all year from my local grocery delivery service in Montreal and these are DELICIOUS. I can't believe more people haven't discovered them because they are seriously the best tasting berry I've ever had. About to chow down on a bowl right now.
Thank you for the wonderful information! I live in Nevada in the high desert, where the soil pH is very alkaline and I've heard that honey berries will tolerate our cold winters and soil. I need to source some of these ASAP!
I live in Saskatchewan Canada and I'm ordering my honey berries now. I'm getting Aurora and Boreal blizzard.( are they sweet ) I hope so) 2yr and come two to a bundle... delivery in spring 25' I'm wondering if I can plant them in big containers for now I think these are like 14W x 14 D container just because I don't know if we're staying at this location...
Very interesting. They're a new and rare berry here in NZ, and I'm just about to get some to plant now the price of plants has come down a little! Wojtek sounds like the best to grow with another just as pollinator. Thank you.
Also, the haskap name comes from the Ainu language, not Japanese. While the Ainu ARE in Japan, the languages aren't related at all. The Ainu are the indigenous people of Japan, who have sadly faced discrimination and assimilation by the group we generally refer to as Japanese. They reached Japan around 300 bc, but the Ainu were already there.
ilove these berries and cant wait till i can make jam..canadian tire in ontario a box store sells these this year berry blue which is susceptible to white mildew and borealis. funny they called them mr and mrs. for the record there is no such thing cheers great video
Great video. But what growth zone are you in? What are the soil PH requirements for the Honeyberry? Are there chilling requirements for fruit set. Other than telling us their cold tolerances, there is nothing here that tells me whether or not I can grow this in Fort Worth zone 8A
Just bought 2. Kawaii honeyberry requires cross pollination. Found 2 at Canadian Tire. Lol don't know what the name is, recognized the berries. So I have Honeyberry SURPRISE!! Adventures in gardening, Love it.
what type of fertilizer are you using? I use blueberry fertilizer 4-3-6, as well as bat guano, and chicken poo. I am very generous with the fertilizer I water just the roots every other day. i would recommend getting more plants as well as long as you have room... I have 62 plants with over 10 varieties, I just put the tape on one today and it is 7 foot 6 inches tall
Great, concise video! What is the maximum distance two varieties could be planted apart from each other? Do they need to be right next to each other, or just in the same yard? (I have a 1/4 acre lot.) Thanks!
Closer is better but you just need pollinators to visit multiple so that they carry the pollen to fertilize the others. Within 100 yd or so. I think anywhere on a quarter acre lot would be fine
Great that they are cold tolerant. We are in South Carolina zone 7, but how well do they take the severe heat? Full sun ok, or will they benefit from a bit of shade?
Thank you for the video. I've had about 3 plants for several years now (3-4) and no fruit so far. Unfortunately the first one I purchased was from Canadian Tire (haha) & didn't identify what type of Haskap. I only know one of my varieties, so I presume I don't have the partner plant that's needed. ...or maybe it just takes a few years. ?
When i bought mine they came as mr and mrs honey berry lol I think they might be different kinds? One is turning out round bush and one tall We get -40 winters with 4-5 feet of snow and they made it through the winter no problem:)
That is extremely difficult, I have over 10 varieties and I can only Identify 3 of them without looking at the tag, the leaves are a good way to Id them as well as the size and shape of the fruit.
I have boreal beast, and as they are less tender, and are not so likely to be smashed while gathered, but the taste is not so good as others. And it’s true, it even flowers during frosts, which is absolutely shocking to me. (Zone 6a)
yes.... you will need a pollinator that blossoms the same time as the variety that you have.... I have 62 plants and over 10 varieties, I do notice that some varieties blossom earlier then others.
Actually I've heard they don't need acid soil. Blueberries do and that's why we can't grow blueberries in our alkaline Wyoming soil. But honeyberries do well here.
Tell the truth. It loos like an uncircumcised blueberry. I put 20 of these across the back of my house. I think i have 6 different kinds from my local nursery. I can't wait till they grow up and produce. I've never had one before.
Thanks for the great video - we live in Poland now and this seems to be a good fit for our climate.
thanks again - take care ;)
I just planted 9 bushes in my yard this summer, most of them together with my apple trees. 3 different varieties. I am really looking for next spring!
And? You have some results?😮
tell us how it's going!
Where did you purchase? They are crazy expensive…

This is excellent! The upclose pictures are fantastic!! They really capture the essence of the fruit.

Thank you, Just purchased some. I am in No. CALIFORNIA hoping they will do well with high summer Temps. In Zone 7. Exciting to find them. 🙏
Wojtek [read: voitek] is a Polish (not Russian) cultivar.
Yes! My cousins name!
Just came to say the same) [voitek] for wojtek, polish word after male name
Nice video very nice berries you are doing very well I believed berries cutting can grow in ❤
Very interesting. They're a new and rare berry here in NZ, and I'm just about to get some to plant now the price of plants has come down a little! Wojtek sounds like the best to grow with another just as pollinator. Thank you.
You deserve more views ! Your explanation are really derailed and are straight forward 👌! Peace !
1:10 Wojtek is actually a Polish not a Russian one

What varieties are non-hybrid/ found in the WILD? Thank you for your videos.

They grow nearly everywhere

I planted two verities two years ago and they didn't grow much. They are in full sun and I add fertilizer. What am I doing wrong.
what type of fertilizer are you using? I use blueberry fertilizer 4-3-6, as well as bat guano, and chicken poo. I am very generous with the fertilizer I water just the roots every other day. i would recommend getting more plants as well as long as you have room... I have 62 plants with over 10 varieties, I just put the tape on one today and it is 7 foot 6 inches tall
Can you tell me if these have seeds that you have to deal with with? Or are they really small like a blueberry to where you don't notice them?
Great, concise video! What is the maximum distance two varieties could be planted apart from each other? Do they need to be right next to each other, or just in the same yard? (I have a 1/4 acre lot.) Thanks!

Can you cross pollinate with loganberry?
No..
Great that they are cold tolerant. We are in South Carolina zone 7, but how well do they take the severe heat? Full sun ok, or will they benefit from a bit of shade?
2-7 more of a winter plant according to online
Needs about 5 hours of sun a day and then shade part of the day

You are likely missing the pollinator. The produce fruit right away.
@@bryanflach6718 you need a female and a male plant so it is likely the ones you got were all the same sex
@@jackdubois5564do the female and male plants both produce fruit, or just the female?
When i bought mine they came as mr and mrs honey berry lol
I think they might be different kinds?
One is turning out round bush and one tall
We get -40 winters with 4-5 feet of snow and they made it through the winter no problem:)
ya not sure what varieties those are, think marketing
nice work!
Wojtek is a Polish variety!
Great video! Our cedar waxwings love our haskaps!! Gotta keep them netted. Would love to find some of the Russian variety :)
Not ruZZian it’s Polish
How do you tell the difference between the plants
That is extremely difficult, I have over 10 varieties and I can only Identify 3 of them without looking at the tag, the leaves are a good way to Id them as well as the size and shape of the fruit.
label them lol
How do I fix powdery mildew?
They’re delicious and they are very fast growing.
Where can I buy the seeds?
I had 3 different varieties and have never had fruit. What is happening?
I've never heard of these before wow❤
Hard to find different varieties.
Try stark bros company
What zone are you in... im in 9b tampa area
I have boreal beast, and as they are less tender, and are not so likely to be smashed while gathered, but the taste is not so good as others.
And it’s true, it even flowers during frosts, which is absolutely shocking to me. (Zone 6a)
Thank you
Can they cross pollinate with blueberries
No - unrelated
I love this plant)
Thanks for showing and cutting a fruit to see what the inside looks like.
Those look delicious
Do you need a pollinator?
yes.... you will need a pollinator that blossoms the same time as the variety that you have.... I have 62 plants and over 10 varieties, I do notice that some varieties blossom earlier then others.
Did u mention Really fertile WET acid SOIL
Actually I've heard they don't need acid soil. Blueberries do and that's why we can't grow blueberries in our alkaline Wyoming soil. But honeyberries do well here.
What.about roselle
Once they turn purple you can’t pick for a month or more and they only ripe once at a time. I have Boreal varieties
Something eats & webs on its leaves & some berries were eaten.
Haskap is an Ainu word not a Japanese word. The languages are as different as English and Japanese.
This berries netive from Kamchatca
Wojtek is actually a polish name ;)
Tell the truth. It loos like an uncircumcised blueberry. I put 20 of these across the back of my house. I think i have 6 different kinds from my local nursery. I can't wait till they grow up and produce. I've never had one before.
In America you grow berries in Russia the berries are secretly growing you
Wojtek is a Polish variety and it is pronounced more like "voytek".
Slightly misleading name - very little practical growing information. Soil type? Spacing? Water requirements? Mulch? etc.
Wojtek - pronounced Voy-tech
Your "wojtek" is pronounced "voy-tech"
Wojtek is not Russian it is Polish
We planted 100
Pretty much like in a wood.))
What about the flowers? It looks like.
HEY DUDE ..I WATCH YOUR OTHER CHANNEL Mooseon the loose
