If You Are Planning On Planting Haskap...
...then this is a reminder that only two varieties of edible blue honeysuckle qualify for this designation. Their names are: Borealis and Tundra. You will need some less-related pollinators of haskap as well. You may read about this in Dr. Bob Bors' article entitled: Pollination Strategy (http://www.fruit.usask.ca/articles/pollinationstrategy.pdf). Edible blue honeysuckle pollinators do not qualify as haskap, even though they may be in your 'haskap orchard.' And no other varieties of edible blue honeysuckles qualify as haskap, either.

can you direct me to where 'haskap' is a protected classification in Canada, and not just a name associated with a protected blue honeysuckle variety ie. borealis and tundra?
