    I have 3 huge honey berry bushes, bought them for 1 dollar each because they had gone dormant and the nursery thought they were dead 😆

    I bought 3 plants a few months ago that will arrive in spring. I purchased the "Aurora", "Boreal Blizzard", and "Boreal Beast" varieties! Beyond excited

    I am excited to purchase the honey berry and the sugar pie this spring and plant them in a container for my balcony. I live in zone 8 in BC, Canada and want to give them a try. Love your channel

    How much of a problem do honeyberries have with birds and other animals eating the fruit? Do they need to be protected after flower set?

    • @PlantFanatics
      @PlantFanatics  Рік тому +4

      Ive never experienced a loss of honey berries due to birds. I think it’s because they ripen so early in the season. Someone else’s experience may be different than mine though. 😀

      The birds devour mine unless I cover them BECAUSE they are the only fruit available at that time

      @kathleen2460 Fortunately for me, I have blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, grapes, apples, peaches, plums, cherries, and sunflowers. Hopefully, this will help.

    I’ve been interested in getting one of these plants, but I’ve heard they drop the ripe fruit easily to the ground and some varieties tend to hold the fruit longer on the bush. Do you find this to be the case? I will check out your store.

    It’s a Haskap , Hunnyberry is just the name Americans have given it to sell it.

    • @PlantFanatics
      @PlantFanatics  Місяць тому

      Yes, it is a Haskap. And regardless, it is now considered a honeyberry to Americans. 😀

    I bought a pair from a big box store 3 years ago. This week, one of the pair gave me my first harvest. The other has not even blossomed yet. Not sure how the one that fruited was able to, since it didn't have a mate; maybe it's self-fertile but just won't give as much fruit. Anyways, I wanted to ask how to know when it's ripe -- is it as soon as it turns from green to blue/purple? I tasted the first couple that had changed colour and they were mostly tart, only a little sweet, and not a particularly deep flavour, kind of watery. Do I leave them to ripen a little longer?

    • @PlantFanatics
      @PlantFanatics  Місяць тому

      Leave them a little longer. Honeyberries are always going to be somewhat tart. They make excellent jam

    What ph do they they’ve best in?

    • @PlantFanatics

      Unlike blueberries, which require a slightly acidic soil, honey berries prefer a more neutral PH. 😀

    I grew 3 honeyberries. Inedible and bitter. Very disappointed.

    • @PlantFanatics
      @PlantFanatics  5 місяців тому +1

      Interesting. Certainly not the flavor profile of Honeyberries. Even unripe they would tend to be sour, not bitter. Perhaps a mislabeled fruiting plant.

      Probably a polish or Russian variety. There are hundreds of varieties. Our 5 varieties are mildly to tart to very sweet.
