Kiev #8 appears in a University of Saskatchewan haskap breeding report as blue honeysuckle germplasm used in breeding. It is not described as a released cultivar. The report places it in the program's work on Lonicera caerulea, or haskap, using Japanese and Russian blue honeysuckle material for prairie production. [S1]
The clearest fact about Kiev #8 is that it was used as one parent in a Kiev #8 x Tomichka seedling family. At Haskap Day in 2006, growers and nurserymen were reported to be impressed by the row of seedlings from that cross. [S1]
The source does not give a fruit description, ripening season, storage behavior, plant habit, release date, breeder, or hardiness rating for Kiev #8 itself. Its importance is as breeding material tied to University of Saskatchewan evaluation work. That work emphasized flavour, firmness at full ripeness, machine harvest potential, and better evaluation methods for blue honeysuckle production. [S1]
Kiev #8 should not be read as the named result of the Kiev #8 x Tomichka family. In this source, it is a parent of that seedling row. The favourable grower reaction applies to the seedlings as a group. [S1]
