Bob Bors visited me 3 weeks ago and he brought a few jars of the U of S
developed blue honeysuckle jam. I think it tastes very good. I will check with
the others who receive some to get their opinions.

Has anybody grown and
tasted these fruits. Years ago I grew some edible honeysuckles and the fruits
were few and bad tasting.

Ernest; It's well worth
the money to get the U of S haskap material. Bob Bors and the crew have an
excellent fruit program at the University of Saskatchewan. They just released
some new apple cultivars as well.

They want $49.42 for five
plants. However $20 min charge is not
included and no price for shipping which may be high. These are
field grown with big root masses. Site is not well laid out. Maybe
there are US charges for certificates. I can go with $69.42.
