Northline Serviceberry

12 years ago

I purchased 10 Northline seedlings from Burnt Ridge Nursery about two years ago and this year,one plant had a few fruit for the first time.The taste was pretty sweet,a little seedy but not too bad.I left one on the bush and picked it,probably at its peak and was sweeter than some of my best Blueberries.I recommend this variety if they can be grown in your area.
I'd also like to try some others like Honeywood,Lee,Martin and Thiessen.
I bought a Smoky because lucky_p talked highly of them.To me though,they had kind of a raw grassy taste.I let them ripen really well,but the flavor didn't beat the Northline.Others that tried them liked the Northline more also.I ended up giving the plant away.Hopefully the taste will improve with age.
