@@ryam8962 I bought them locally from here, Finland. It's a good thing I did, they're like 30 bucks a piece now! Easy to get rooting, so I'll be sure to multiply this year.
@@zydsiegelinntalschmiede845 they all survived this winter, and even the ones eaten by moles came back. I have 5 varieties, the shape of the bush varies quite a bit.
Not sure what the variety is but I buy these all year from my local grocery delivery service in Montreal and these are DELICIOUS. I can't believe more people haven't discovered them because they are seriously the best tasting berry I've ever had. About to chow down on a bowl right now.
Thank you for the wonderful information! I live in Nevada in the high desert, where the soil pH is very alkaline and I've heard that honey berries will tolerate our cold winters and soil. I need to source some of these ASAP!
Just bought 2. Kawaii honeyberry requires cross pollination. Found 2 at Canadian Tire. Lol don't know what the name is, recognized the berries. So I have Honeyberry SURPRISE!! Adventures in gardening, Love it.
Also, the haskap name comes from the Ainu language, not Japanese. While the Ainu ARE in Japan, the languages aren't related at all. The Ainu are the indigenous people of Japan, who have sadly faced discrimination and assimilation by the group we generally refer to as Japanese. They reached Japan around 300 bc, but the Ainu were already there.
Very interesting. They're a new and rare berry here in NZ, and I'm just about to get some to plant now the price of plants has come down a little! Wojtek sounds like the best to grow with another just as pollinator. Thank you.
It's pronounced Voytek. Like the voy in voyeur. Haskap is a Dutch word, but the Dutch were in a monopolistic trade agreement with Japan before anyone else until the USA forced them to deal with the west openly.
@@EarthMonkey No problem dude. Thanks for the good videos. I am going to be growing some of these as a result of you. I'm also trying to get hold of seeds for every fruit that you've shown on your channel.
ilove these berries and cant wait till i can make jam..canadian tire in ontario a box store sells these this year berry blue which is susceptible to white mildew and borealis. funny they called them mr and mrs. for the record there is no such thing cheers great video
When i bought mine they came as mr and mrs honey berry lol I think they might be different kinds? One is turning out round bush and one tall We get -40 winters with 4-5 feet of snow and they made it through the winter no problem:)
Great, concise video! What is the maximum distance two varieties could be planted apart from each other? Do they need to be right next to each other, or just in the same yard? (I have a 1/4 acre lot.) Thanks!
Closer is better but you just need pollinators to visit multiple so that they carry the pollen to fertilize the others. Within 100 yd or so. I think anywhere on a quarter acre lot would be fine
Thank you for the video. I've had about 3 plants for several years now (3-4) and no fruit so far. Unfortunately the first one I purchased was from Canadian Tire (haha) & didn't identify what type of Haskap. I only know one of my varieties, so I presume I don't have the partner plant that's needed. ...or maybe it just takes a few years. ?
Great video. But what growth zone are you in? What are the soil PH requirements for the Honeyberry? Are there chilling requirements for fruit set. Other than telling us their cold tolerances, there is nothing here that tells me whether or not I can grow this in Fort Worth zone 8A
Great that they are cold tolerant. We are in South Carolina zone 7, but how well do they take the severe heat? Full sun ok, or will they benefit from a bit of shade?
what type of fertilizer are you using? I use blueberry fertilizer 4-3-6, as well as bat guano, and chicken poo. I am very generous with the fertilizer I water just the roots every other day. i would recommend getting more plants as well as long as you have room... I have 62 plants with over 10 varieties, I just put the tape on one today and it is 7 foot 6 inches tall
Actually I've heard they don't need acid soil. Blueberries do and that's why we can't grow blueberries in our alkaline Wyoming soil. But honeyberries do well here.
That is extremely difficult, I have over 10 varieties and I can only Identify 3 of them without looking at the tag, the leaves are a good way to Id them as well as the size and shape of the fruit.
yes.... you will need a pollinator that blossoms the same time as the variety that you have.... I have 62 plants and over 10 varieties, I do notice that some varieties blossom earlier then others.
Tell the truth. It loos like an uncircumcised blueberry. I put 20 of these across the back of my house. I think i have 6 different kinds from my local nursery. I can't wait till they grow up and produce. I've never had one before.
Wojtek [read: voitek] is a Polish (not Russian) cultivar.
I just planted 9 bushes in my yard this summer, most of them together with my apple trees. 3 different varieties. I am really looking for next spring!
And? You have some results?😮
tell us how it's going!
Where did you purchase? They are crazy expensive…

Sono un produttore italiano e non riesco a comprendere i video.Grazie
👍. About to order a bunch of plans from nutcrackernursey just passed you
Piú facile da producers che I mirtilli. Toleranno il freddo
Thanks for the great video - we live in Poland now and this seems to be a good fit for our climate.
thanks again - take care ;)

This is excellent! The upclose pictures are fantastic!! They really capture the essence of the fruit.
You deserve more views ! Your explanation are really derailed and are straight forward 👌! Peace !
Thank you, Just purchased some. I am in No. CALIFORNIA hoping they will do well with high summer Temps. In Zone 7. Exciting to find them. 🙏

Nice video very nice berries you are doing very well I believed berries cutting can grow in ❤
What varieties are non-hybrid/ found in the WILD? Thank you for your videos.
Very interesting. They're a new and rare berry here in NZ, and I'm just about to get some to plant now the price of plants has come down a little! Wojtek sounds like the best to grow with another just as pollinator. Thank you.
It's pronounced Voytek. Like the voy in voyeur. Haskap is a Dutch word, but the Dutch were in a monopolistic trade agreement with Japan before anyone else until the USA forced them to deal with the west openly.
The word “Haskap” isn’t really used in the Netherlands.
We just call it “honing bes” AKA honey berry.
there's my learned fact for the day thanks
@@EarthMonkey No problem dude. Thanks for the good videos. I am going to be growing some of these as a result of you. I'm also trying to get hold of seeds for every fruit that you've shown on your channel.
Great video! Our cedar waxwings love our haskaps!! Gotta keep them netted. Would love to find some of the Russian variety :)
nice work!

One is turning out round bush and one tall
We get -40 winters with 4-5 feet of snow and they made it through the winter no problem:)
ya not sure what varieties those are, think marketing
They’re delicious and they are very fast growing.
Thank you
I've never heard of these before wow❤
Great, concise video! What is the maximum distance two varieties could be planted apart from each other? Do they need to be right next to each other, or just in the same yard? (I have a 1/4 acre lot.) Thanks!

Within 100 yd or so. I think anywhere on a quarter acre lot would be fine
Those look delicious
I love this plant)
Can you tell me if these have seeds that you have to deal with with? Or are they really small like a blueberry to where you don't notice them?
Once they turn purple you can’t pick for a month or more and they only ripe once at a time. I have Boreal varieties
Thank you for the video. I've had about 3 plants for several years now (3-4) and no fruit so far.

You are likely missing the pollinator. The produce fruit right away.
@@bryanflach6718 you need a female and a male plant so it is likely the ones you got were all the same sex
@@jackdubois5564do the female and male plants both produce fruit, or just the female?
Great video. But what growth zone are you in? What are the soil PH requirements for the Honeyberry? Are there chilling requirements for fruit set. Other than telling us their cold tolerances, there is nothing here that tells me whether or not I can grow this in Fort Worth zone 8A
They grow nearly everywhere
Great that they are cold tolerant. We are in South Carolina zone 7, but how well do they take the severe heat? Full sun ok, or will they benefit from a bit of shade?
2-7 more of a winter plant according to online
Needs about 5 hours of sun a day and then shade part of the day
I planted two verities two years ago and they didn't grow much. They are in full sun and I add fertilizer. What am I doing wrong.
what type of fertilizer are you using? I use blueberry fertilizer 4-3-6, as well as bat guano, and chicken poo. I am very generous with the fertilizer I water just the roots every other day. i would recommend getting more plants as well as long as you have room...

Morning sun afternoon shade.
What.about roselle
I had 3 different varieties and have never had fruit. What is happening?
Thanks for showing and cutting a fruit to see what the inside looks like.
Can you cross pollinate with loganberry?
No..
Hard to find different varieties.
Try stark bros company
What zone are you in... im in 9b tampa area
Did u mention Really fertile WET acid SOIL
Actually I've heard they don't need acid soil. Blueberries do and that's why we can't grow blueberries in our alkaline Wyoming soil. But honeyberries do well here.
How do you tell the difference between the plants
That is extremely difficult, I have over 10 varieties and I can only Identify 3 of them without looking at the tag, the leaves are a good way to Id them as well as the size and shape of the fruit.
label them lol
Something eats & webs on its leaves & some berries were eaten.
Haskap is an Ainu word not a Japanese word. The languages are as different as English and Japanese.
Do you need a pollinator?
yes.... you will need a pollinator that blossoms the same time as the variety that you have.... I have 62 plants and over 10 varieties, I do notice that some varieties blossom earlier then others.
This berries netive from Kamchatca
In America you grow berries in Russia the berries are secretly growing you
Can they cross pollinate with blueberries
No - unrelated
These are closer to honeysuckle than blueberries
Wojtek is actually a polish name ;)
Tell the truth. It loos like an uncircumcised blueberry. I put 20 of these across the back of my house. I think i have 6 different kinds from my local nursery. I can't wait till they grow up and produce. I've never had one before.
Wojtek is a Polish variety and it is pronounced more like "voytek".
Wojtek - pronounced Voy-tech
Your "wojtek" is pronounced "voy-tech"
Wojtek is not Russian it is Polish
We planted 100
Pretty much like in a wood.))
HEY DUDE ..I WATCH YOUR OTHER CHANNEL Mooseon the loose
What about the flowers? It looks like.
Thank you
