Bob Bors talks about haskap, a.k.a. honeyberry, a very cold-tolerant fruit
Haskap is a Fruit for Northern Gardens
In this replay of a 2019 interview, we chat with Bob Bors, head of the fruit breeding program at the University of Saskatchewan.
We talk about:
Breeding haskap (a.k.a. honeyberry) fruit
Cold-tolerance of haskap
How to care for haskap
How to prune haskap
Cold-tolerant cherry varieties from University of Saskatchewan
Growing Fruit in Northern Gardens
Bors is also the co-author of an excellent book: Growing Fruit in Northern Gardens. The book is not currently in print—but it’s well worth hunting for a used copy.
