I knew #honeyberry like shade, but these woke up a LOT in the garage. Brought everybody out of hibernation this evening because we're going to get a ton of rain tomorrow. 31 Mar 2023 #lonicera #haskap

Finally repotted this #honeyberry-indigogem into something it can grow into. It's been sitting on my kitchen counter since it arrived Wednesday. Added some #woodchip #mulch on the top to keep the moisture in. 7 Aug 2022 #lonicera-caerulea-kamtschatica #honeyberry #haskap
The second of two #honeyberry bushes; this one is 'Indigo Gem.' I learned that you have to have two different varieties of honeyberry to get fruit, and the flowers of both plants have to bloom at the same time. So you want two early-flowering varieties or two late-flowering, but not one of each. 2 Aug 2022 #lonicera-caerulea-kamtschatica #haskap #honeyberry-indigogem #plantmail #tripplebrookfarm
@gjones thanks for the tip Katy, I definitely will. I've never tasted them so I'm motivated to keep the birds off.

This one shot out a bunch of new growth but it's also wilting. Too much water perhaps. 29 Apr 2023 #lonicera-caerulea-kamtschatica #honeyberry-indigogem
