Bugnet refers to older blue honeysuckle material identified as Lonicera caerulea from a Beaverlodge, Alberta breeding program about 50 years before the 2012 Saskatchewan report. The source treats Bugnet as a small group of varieties, not as a detailed single cultivar profile. It matters mainly as a contrast to later University of Saskatchewan haskap breeding, not as a recommended fruit cultivar. [S1]
The Beaverlodge material was bred as ornamental plants, not fruit cultivars. The report says the Bugnet selections tasted horrible, despite later nursery marketing with names such as "sweet berry honeysuckles" and "blue honeysuckles." [S1]
The available source gives no fruit size, color, ripening season, storage behavior, plant habit, disease notes, parentage, or release date for Bugnet. The clearest origin statement is that it came from Beaverlodge, Alberta, Canada, through an older Lonicera caerulea breeding effort. [S1]
The broader taxonomic context is blue honeysuckle or haskap, Lonicera caerulea. The Saskatchewan report says its program used the Japanese name Haskap partly to distinguish its newer material, with strong Japanese germplasm influence, from older Beaverlodge selections such as Bugnet. [S1]
Hardiness is not stated directly for Bugnet. Its Beaverlodge, Alberta origin suggests a northern Canadian breeding context, but the source gives no zone rating or winter survival record for these selections. [S1]
