‘Blue Velvet’ Honeyberry Bush
- If you’re looking for some new fruit to grow, then may we kindly point you in the direction of the ‘Blue Velvet’ honeyberry bush!
- Boasting delightful, trumpet-shaped white flowers and lush green foliage, this shrubby bush would be a lovely plant even without the berries – but when you throw in the fruits on top of that? Wowzer…
- The elongated, cylindrical blue berries are ready to harvest at the beginning of summer and have a wonderful sweet taste, combined with a lovely hint of tang.
- A seriously tough cookie, this plant will tolerate whatever temperatures the British winter can throw at it, and just to top it all off, it’s nice and easy to grow.
- If there was going to be a fruit to wrestle the superfood title from the blueberry, it would be the honeyberry. Bursting with vitamins A and C, as well as a whole host of beneficial antioxidants, these blue fruits are undoubtedly the best new health food in town.
