aurora haskaps at a local upick @riverbendorchards , my morning was picking about a gallon of them along with some gooseberries. the hedge rows are just solid runs loaded with fruit, an enjoyable experience to pick. if you're growing these at home you can plant them as individual bushes, and in good soil and full sun they'll get this big, note you need another variety for pollination that flowers at the same time. generally around the nursery we trim our stock bushes heavily for cuttings, so it's nice to visit these established production rows to pick some fruit.

in my hand (bottom) is honeybee, the pollinator bushes interspersed in the aurora rows (aurora is above it, larger leaves). it's easy to identify the honeybee cultivar with the smaller leaves and fruit. honeybee fruit still tastes great, so you can mix them together when you pick, in fact if you grow several kinds that's a good way to do it, then you get a real blend of subtly different flavours and balance of sweet/tartness. I find that most of these cultivar haskaps have a similar flavour, the differences between them are more pronounced in the bush shape and leave size, size of the fruit and its flowering / fruiting period. So a good reason to grow a few cultivars is the same as with other fruits, some variety and also to extend them harvesting season.
