Lonicera caerulea 'Balalaika'

Family: Caprifoliaceae, Genus: Lonicera

Description:

Lonicera caerulea 'Balalaika', also known as honeyberry, is a superfruit native to North America, prized for its sweet, powder-blue berries. The fruit, about 1 inch long, tastes like a blend of blueberry and blackberry or raspberry and is rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. This hardy plant is easier to grow than blueberries and does not require specific soil pH. It thrives in full sun with consistent moisture and enriched soil, and it benefits from cross-pollination with varieties like HoneybeeTM and Sugar Mountain® Blue.
