Here comes Boreal Beast — big flavour, aroma, and berries that stay put on the bush. A standout pick for growers wanting fruit that delivers both in taste and in staying power.
Quick highlights:
• Hardiness: Cold-tolerant and vigorous.
• Productivity: High yields just after mid-season.
• Berry size: Medium-large fruit (~2g average).
• Firmness: Very firm — holds up well for harvesting and handling.
Named to complement “Boreal Beauty,” this variety overlaps bloom/ripening with both Boreal Blizzard and Beauty. Its flavour scores remain high over multi-year trials, and its strong upright habit and aroma make it a gardener’s delight.
Pollination Partners:
Boreal Beast pairs excellently with Borealis, Boreal Blizzard, and Boreal Beauty — all three bloom in strong sync. Blue Bell and Berry Blue also provide good compatibility, and the Indigo Series (Indigo Gem, Indigo Treat) is a workable option. Honey Bee is decent. Aurora and Tundra are not reliable partners for Boreal Beast.
