Borealis Honeyberry Bush
'Borealis' is a top-performing, cold-hardy honeyberry variety known for its extra-large, flavorful fruits. The berries resemble elongated blueberries and have a sweet yet tangy taste that’s perfect for fresh eating, jams, and baking.
This deciduous shrub grows compactly and is ideal for northern climates. It blooms early and requires a pollination partner like 'Aurora' or 'Tundra' for fruit production. The plant is low-maintenance, adaptable to various soils, and highly valued for its antioxidant-rich berries.
