Yezberry® Solo™ Japanese Haskap (Lonicera)

The dream of having your own plant full of sweet, delicious fruit is just a click away! Yezberry Solo Japanese haskap (Lonicera caerulea) is a truly easy-to-grow, truly delicious fruiting shrub. One of the very first things to bloom in spring, the tubular yellow flowers sustain pollinators when little else is available. They soon develop into green berries, which turn blue as they ripen in summer. There's no special soil, pruning, spraying, or know-how required to grow them! How do the berries taste? A bit like a cross between a raspberry and a blueberry, though they aren't related to either of those notoriously-finicky-to-grow plants. They have the sweetness of a raspberry with a hint of pleasant tartness. We also love that the skin kind of dissolves when you eat them - it doesn't come off and stick to your teeth like a blueberry does. The seeds are tiny but don't get stuck in your teeth like raspberries. They are delicious and definitely worth growing! Note: Yezberry Solo haskap will set fruit, even without a pollinator nearby. However, it will set more fruit, and bigger fruit, if another of the other Yezberry varieties is planted within 50'. Plus, both plants will get fruit!
