I got a shipment of haskaps from haskap central last year with 20%   
dead plants.  The replacements they sent were poorly packed and in bad  
shape-- but mostly survived anyway.  They are tough plants.  This year  
I bought my haskaps from honeyberry USA (they also sell Uof S  
cherries)-- around the same price and the plants were better quality.
