Due to very popular demand, we have temporarily run out of our honeyberry plants, but they will be back again this week so please enter your email into the "Notify Me" box above and we'll let you know as soon as they are back!
A set of two Honeyberry plants: Giant's Heart and Strawberry Sensation. Honeyberries have a richer, more intense berry flavour than blueberries with a slightly softer texture. This unique flavour is best described as a mix between blueberries, blackberries and raspberries, with a hint of blackcurrant. Some varieties also have subtle notes of strawberry, cherry or even a slight tang of kiwi.
Honeyberries require a pollination partner for the best fruit production - we've chosen these two varieties for great compatibility!
Giant's Heart Honeyberry Plant
A fantastic addition to any UK garden, Giant's Heart Honeyberry (Lonicera caerulea) is capable of producing up to 4kg of uniquely shaped, deep blue berries per bush with a delicious balance of sweetness and tartness. These nutrient-rich fruits are packed with antioxidants, making them perfect for eating fresh, jams, desserts, smoothies, freezing and for making wine.
Strawberry Sensation Honeyberry Plant
‘Strawberry Sensation’ is an exciting new variety of Honeyberry, prized for its exceptionally sweet flavour with subtle alpine strawberry-like flavour. Producing an abundance of oval, almost round berries up to 2cm in size, this hardy fruit bush is perfect for fresh eating, freezing or blending into smoothies and jams. Its early harvest and easy-care nature make it an excellent addition to any UK garden.
