My first Haskap berries

I’m excited by my first crop of Haskaps (Honeyberries or Blue Honeysuckle / Blåleddved). Even though the plants are only about 25-30 cm tall, all my five neglected plants had plenty of berries.  I’m growing  the following cultivars:   “Borealis”; “Honey Bee”; “Indigo Gem”,  “Tundra” and one other nameless.
I’m sure they’ll make a great dried berry and I’m keen to grow more. Unlike bilberries / blåbær, they don’t mind my alkaline soil!
