Indigo Gem Haskap (Lonicera caerulea 'Indigo Gem')

The Indigo series of haskaps including several cultivars like 'Indigo Gem,' 'Indigo Treat,' and 'Indigo Yum,' are an early release in the breeding program at the University of Saskatchewan's fruit program. Selected for early ripening, cold hardiness, and high fruit yields.

• 'Indigo Gem': Known for its spreading habit, medium-sized, oval berries with a sweet-tart flavour, and early ripening.
• 'Indigo Treat': More compact and upright than 'Indigo Gem,' with smaller, firmer berries that are also sweet-tart but with a slightly more intense flavor.

These cultivars require cross pollination with another haskap variety for fruit production, one that flowers at the same time.

Cold Hardiness Zone: 2
Mature Size: 4-5 ft tall and wide
