The quintessential honeyberry variety, "Indigo Treat" has the most concentrated honeyberry flavor of all the varieties. That flavor being wild blueberry jam mixed with raspberry, and in this case is so strong it teeters on the edge of hinting at black currant flavor. Truly exceptional. They are the most interesting looking berry in the garden, with an appearance like a tubular blueberry with one or sometimes two dimples on the end. Besides their unique appearance and fantastic flavor, they are a natural superfood, with an antioxidant and polyphenol content higher than blueberries. Antioxidants are responsible for fighting free radicals responsible for age-related illnesses and cancers. They also have a tremendous amount of vitamin C and K, surpassing even oranges, a good amount of vitamin A, and some iron, zinc, and magnesium. The phytochemicals in it are among the healthiest of any berry that tastes as good as this one does, making them indispensable for healthy eaters. The berries grow abundantly and with little care, making them valuable for low-maintenance gardening, and the first thing to flower in may. Requires a pollinator such as Aurora or Indigo Treat.
