Lonicera caerulea 'Indigo Gem'
Lonicera caerulea 'Indigo Gem', also known as the 'Indigo Gem' haskap, is a deciduous fruit-bearing shrub with an upright and compact habit, recognized for its very high productivity and early maturity. In spring, it bears small, cold-resistant, creamy-white flowers, followed in early summer by an abundance of elongated, dark blue fruits. This variety stands out for its generous production and ease of harvesting due to its relatively uniform ripening. Lonicera caerulea 'Indigo Gem' prefers full sun to partial shade exposure and well-drained, slightly fertile soil. Very hardy and reliable in northern climates, it is ideal for fruit hedges or edible beds. Another compatible variety is necessary to ensure optimal pollination and maximize yield.
