Delicious and easy to grow! The Yezberry Solo Haskap Berry produces large edible fruit that is sweet. It is cold hardy, deer resistant, and has low maintenance needs. Yellow flowers show up in the very early days of spring. Come early summer you will have yummy berries to pick and eat or use in your favorite jam recipe.
The foliage is dark green, the yellow flowers appear in the early spring, then what this shrub is known for, its sizeable blue berries, make their appearance in early summer. These berries can be eaten straight from the plant or used in numerous recipes. The Yezberry Solo Haskap Berry has a garden height of 60” to 72” inches and a spread of 60”-72” inches. The mounded growing habit makes it a great addition as a thriller in container planting. This plant is good for screening and does well with mass planting.
Yezberry Solo Haskap Berry Care
To produce berries, plant another Yezberry alongside. Plant in full to part sun, ensure it receives at least four hours of sun a day. For optimal berry production be sure it receives six hours of sun and plenty of air. It has average water needs and prefers well drained soil. This Yezberry is not picky about soil types and can tolerate all soils with varying PH levels. Fruit should be harvested soon after it turns blue, testing and making sure its sweet.
Note: This plant does not require another Yezberry to be planted with it in order to cross-pollinate and produce fruit. However, we recommend planting with another variety of Yezberry with it, because it will produce much more fruit if you do.
Yezberry Solo Haskap Berry Spacing
To make harvesting easy and to give your Yezberry Solo Haskap Berry proper room to grow space it at least 60” inches, center on center. Correct spacing will ensure the health and longevity of the plant.
Interesting Fact(s) - Yezberry® Japanese haskaps are closely related to best-selling Sugar Mountain® sweetberry honeysuckle. However, the Yezberry series was developed from purely Japanese strains of haskap, while the Sugar Mountain series is of Russian heritage. Other differences: Yezberry haskaps bloom a bit later, so they're a good choice for areas that get frequent spring frosts. Yezberry fruits are plumper and rounder than Sugar Mountain fruits, but both are equally tasty and heavy-bearing when it comes to harvest time. Lonicera comparison chart

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
