Honey Berries are not very useful, fruitful or showy in any way. I have a few here and never see any berries. The plants just take up space..

What are Honey Berries? I did a search and found nothing.

I saw those in catalogs and decided they weren't worth the space after a little research.

Anyone regret growing Mulberries? (except for the staining, that is)

Related to Honey Suckle. They are common in Russia/Siberia. They have elongated fruits which are similar to a blueberry in appearance. You need both genders of bushes for them to produce fruits.

Try searching "honeyberry" (all words)
with "lonicera" OR "caerulea" (at least one of the words)
in Google advanced search.

Probably you were growing green gooseberries. The Red Velvet ones taste good to me, anyway. I don't think white currants have much flavor. I haven't gotten any fruit yet from Hippophae rhamnoides, sea berry. I personally like mulberries, but my white berried one only had a couple of berries it's 4th year. I'm going to try a black mulberry this year. My serviceberry had fruit but after a few years got terrible rust on the berries, and I didn't think they were very tasty.

OTOH, I love all the blueberries, and keep planting more. They keep well and always taste good.

Nanking cherries....beautiful in bloom, relatively hardy, but the 'cherries' are sooooooooooooooooooo tiny...

I'm not sure if it would be worth trying to make sauce out of them, the pit is so large compared to the tiny amount of 'flesh'-though they really are sweet and tasty out of hand.

The birds love them, so it isn't a total loss.

I agree with the folks who said Honeyberries. I planted two of these shrubs afew years ago and have gotten fruit but what a waste. The berries are few and don't have much flavor.

serviceberry grow wild up here and most are full of rust and seedy. not worth eating except they ripen before huckleberries and grow without acid soil. If blueberries grow where you are at, they are much better tasting.

Actually gooseberries are a relative of the kiwi... I love my mulberry tree. I keep it squat and thick, under ten feet tall (it would grow that much in a season if I let it.) So I can reach all of the berries and it produces heavily. It's season is almost over here, unfortunatley.

Mulberries! I bought an "Illinois Everbearing" several years ago. What a mistake! It grew really, really fast and there are other trees around here just growing on the street that had much more delicious fruit! I got it cut down and Rounduped the roots so the stump wouldn't sucker. Of course, here in S. Indiana it pretty much comes up as a weed everyplace, so there was a lot of competition for the the watery, sometimes somewhat tasty berries.

We grow Hinonmaki Yellow gooseberries that are delicious when ripe and Achilles which is red. Both are excellent. Everyone who comes to our daylily nursery samples the gooseberries and the majority love them. We eat them right off the bush and have dehydrated them will success.

We also grow red and white currants. The white ones are good when ripe, off the bush but the red are a waste of space to me. They are very pretty. Red currents make good jelly I've heard but we don't do jelly so we just look at them or give them away. I don't think the birds even eat them!

I love serviceberries!!!
