Introducing the Aurora Honeyberry (Haskap), an outstanding variety known for its sweet, tangy berries that are rich in antioxidants and perfect for fresh eating or making preserves. The Aurora Honeyberry (Lonicera caerulea) is a favorite among gardeners due to its hardiness, early ripening fruit, and easy-to-grow nature. These deep blue berries, sometimes referred to as Aurora Haskap, are perfect for adding flavor and nutrition to your garden harvest.
One important note when growing honeyberry plants is that they require cross-pollination to produce fruit. To ensure a successful harvest, you’ll need at least one other compatible variety planted nearby. Varieties like Tundra Haskap and Indigo Treat Haskap are excellent pollination partners for Aurora Honeyberry.
Why Choose Aurora Honeyberry?
- Delicious, Nutritious Berries: The Aurora Honeyberry produces large, juicy berries that are sweet and slightly tart, perfect for eating fresh, baking, or making jams and jellies. These berries are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
- Early Harvest: Honeyberries are one of the earliest fruits to ripen in the season, often producing a crop before strawberries. This makes them a valuable addition to your garden for those looking to extend their fruit harvest season.
- Hardy and Low Maintenance: Aurora Haskap is a cold-hardy variety, thriving in colder climates (grow zones 2 to 7). It’s easy to grow and requires little maintenance, making it an excellent choice for both beginner and experienced gardeners.
- Requires Cross-Pollination: For optimal fruit production, you’ll need to plant another honeyberry variety nearby for cross-pollination. Consider pairing your Aurora Honeyberry with Tundra Haskap or Indigo Treat Haskap for the best results.

Customer Reviews
Received my Aurora Honeyberry alive but stressed. It has since settled in and is looking much better. Funny, the one we thought winter killed has started to come back. So now we have 2 Aurora Honeyberries and one Tundra to cross pollinate.
Arrived quickly, plants were packed well and looked happy and healthy on arrival. They’ve been in the ground for about a week (some turbulent spring weather) and seem to be doing well so far.
Plants arrived in good shape except for a small bend in one stalk. I put them in pots immediately and they seemed to do well. I supported the little bent part and it seems to be remembering how to be straight. I look forward to putting these plants into the ground and watching them grow. I love my new, developing food forest! Tthank you for being part of it. :)
The plants came carefully packed, quickly and healthy. I planted them and they are still alive 4 days later so I got my hopes up😊
So happy I was finally able to get my hands on some honey berry plants! Seems like I have been looking for months for someone that sells honeyberry plants that doesn’t want a fortune or them or that doesn’t need you to buy 100 of them!! Thank you Jesus and thank you Weaver family farm nursery for offering plants like this that aren’t found everywhere else. Very much appreciated. I will send all the business here that I can. Also excellent plant quality and service
Happy to hear this! Thank you Danny!
