Maxine's Opus Honeyberry

Bred by renowned expert Dr. Maxine Thompson, the vigorous Maxine's Opus Honeyberry stands out for its exceptionally large, sweet fruit and open growth habit that makes harvesting a breeze. This cold-hardy variety thrives in Northern gardens, producing delicate white spring blooms that transform into plump berries perfect for eating as a snack or as a jelly. Grow in full sun with afternoon shade, spacing plants about 5' apart to create an edible hedge. Whether grown in containers or as part of a woodland garden design, this disease-resistant variety delivers abundant harvests while attracting beneficial pollinators. For best results, provide well-draining soil and pair with another honeyberry variety to ensure optimal fruit production through cross pollination.
