Me too! 🤗

Grows wild where I hang out so I’m glad to hear it’s edible ;) I thought it was a blueberry at first and my friends were horrified when they realized it wasn’t but couldn’t figure out what it was

thank you for the information, I just bought a bush here in Ontario hopefully I will have these delicious berries

Just ordered 100 plants (50 smokey and 50 northline) Can't wait to make pies.

We have these Berrys growing wild here and they are good yo I always wanted to grow a Saskatoon berry bush

that's a great looking orchard you have there! i've been thinking of planting some saskatoons at my farm out near sundre. what kind of soil is best? does it need good drainage? do they like clay? also, how far apart are your rows? it looks like around 12 feet or so... thanks! c

We live in Calgary, have a small back yard, and have 2 smokey saskatoon bushes that produce more than we or the birds can eat. Now we just have to figure out how we can prune them down to a manageable size.

Well done video!

I transplanted one this Fall to a sunnier location in my yard. My hopes is that'll help it grow better - faster. I also plan to water it with a little Miracle Grow. Just maybe, one day, I will get to see some beautiful Cedar Waxwings eating some of the berries.

I'm going to order a Saskatoon plant and plant it in my families backyard. :)

I planted some about 8 years ago but the fruit never get big and berries stay hard. After watching this video I am going to try your suggestion and plant some Northline Saskatoons in the spring of 2023 and see what happens.

-Great Post Guys ,,,Any Chance Of Yard Production out in the Okanagan Valley???Old prairie Boy Missing The Berry ...and Can We Propagate from cuttings???

do you propagate from seed or cuttings? i am interested in planting these in the woods where they have been cutting down all the trees. i understand they are very hardy and will provide a living mulch where the earth has been scared by development.

How do you keep the birds from getting them? The birds always get mine.

Why aren't any new uploads made on this channel ? We'd love the new updates.

SaskatoonFarm Where did you acquire that harvesting machine? I have an 8 acre farm and I would like to consider growing these and loved that harvesting machine sir.

Hello fellow Canadian grower

i am hoping to grow some saskatoons next year, would i be able to email you some questions ?

How close together can you plant these Northline Saskatoon plants?

I have wild bushes in my yard here in the mountains of BC, I have no idea how to trim them or care for them to get a good yield? All the bushes are short. The land is dry and full of rocks. The plants are very hardy! I’d like to see what I can do to help them along. Can you make a video that might help. Thank you 🙏

When do you prune the shrubs?

Just planted two bushes this spring.

Do you ship rooted cuttings or plants to the US?

Bought 6 plants. I'm from Romania. :)

Im about to get 5 alemanchier arborea trees to plant in my backyard in North Texas

Awesome video...I lovVed it...so enchantinG!!!👍A buddy of mine told me that we have some Saskatoon bushes growinG closeby at a golf course and in late July we are gonna go piCk them!!!👍So I am on youtube today trying to figure out how to make an awesome jam for them etc!!!👍Happi SprinG fellow plant lovVer!!!✌🙏😇🌎🌹🌞🌹☕☕☕

My place in Montana has great soil and water, but can be windy in spring and fall. Interested in planting 5 acres. How much would it cost for plant stock.? Is the wind a problem ? I can fence for deer. Thanks

These grow naturally where I live, I'm just lucky if there is any left to pick.

Would anyone guess whether this is an Amelanchier canadensis or Amelanchier alnifolia or maybe a different variety?? Thank you if anyone could clarify?

They used to grow wild on our ranch here in central Alberta but now there's hardly any.

this would be Amelanchier alnifolia yes? What is the yield quality and taste of the Amelanchier canadensis? How do you think they both compare?? Is the latter being commercially cultivated as well? Thank you. Great video - yes - Saskatoon berries are totally Awesome!

I wish people would just always include Latin names as well that way there’s no confusion like there is with common names. I can see lightly dentate leaf margins that give amelanchier alnifolia its name, but many of the species have this feature so it’s hard to say definitively. I don’t commonly see Saskatoon used for the genius though, just specifically this species, and I have seen the cultivar ‘Northline’ mentioned here attached to amelanchier alnifolia so I think it’s pretty safe to assume that’s what species it is. I see amelanchier alnifolia, canadensis, and arborea are pretty commonly offered in cultivation, and sometimes but less so-utahensis in the western US. As far as taste goes I don’t have a good answer, I know all species are edible, but it sounds like they are all fairly sweet(similar to blueberries). I have read that alnifolia typically produces the best fruit crop…although I have no idea how much merit this statement has. Sorry if my response is useless after all this time 😂.

@@oscarflip8561 Thanks for your reply. All good - I think you're right and the reference to 'Northline' is the clue... => Amelanchier alnifolia 'Northline' (Alder-leaved serviceberry 'Northline').

My favourite berry. Saskatoon pie is superior to blueberry pie, IMO.

How do you keep the birds from eating a god chunk of the crop?

@froggydoodle808

I'm guessing that they barely make a dent in the crop. I live in the southeastern US, and I planted 3 little serviceberry trees ten years ago. When the berries ripen all at once, over a couple weeks in early summer, we can't eat them all, even with the help of all the birds in the neighborhood!

Do I need two plants for production

@oscarflip8561

Nope the plants are not dioecious(plants house the male and female flowers on different plants). The flowers are hermaphroditic (having both male and female organs on individual flowers) so with only one plant you will get both flowers and berries. 😊

They grow best in well-drained loamy soil. Sandy soil may need irrigation.
