The large elliptical shaped berries of Honeyberry are similar in colour and taste to blueberries, with a slight after taste of honey. The fruit is very high in antioxidants, loaded with flavour and retains flavour and form when frozen. Very hardy, drought resistant and easy to grow with the added benefit of being virtually pest and disease free. Unlike blueberries they don't require a specific soil condition, but they will fruit better if two different varieties are planted together.Unlike blueberries they don't require a specific soil condition, but they will fruit better if two different varieties are planted together.
