Honeyberry

[Jim Elbrecht]

I got a new catalog today- "one Green World". Never dealt with the folks, but the description "Unique Fruits and Ornamentals from around the World" made me crack the cover and drool a bit.

These guys caught my eye-- Honeyberry - sets fruit early spring- looks like a real prolific plant with berries large enough for me to pick a quart or two.

've learned over the years that everything is beautiful, easy, and prolific in a seed catalog, but not always the same in real life. So I wondered if anyone had some real world experience with them.

I went to google groups first and ran across a few threads asking about them in 2002-- but not a bunch of folks saying they tried them.

I found this thread on gardenweb;

real encouraging- but it hasn't turned me off yet.

I'm in NY- a warm zone 5.

Thanks, Jim
