Thiessen suits cold climates and gardens with enough space for a vigorous shrub. We recommend it to growers who value very large fruit, excellent sweet-tart flavour and long-term productivity. Its early but extended ripening period provides fruit over several pickings. The trade-off is that the crop does not mature all at once, so repeated harvesting is necessary.

Thiessen is one of the most popular Saskatoon or Juneberry varieties, with a particularly good sharp tangy flavour.
The tree is vigorous and the berry-like fruits are amongst the largest of their kind.
The fruits ripen progressively over a long period, starting in early summer.
Thiessen was discovered as a wild seedling in Sasketchewan, Canada, in 1906, making it one of the oldest and most widely-grown Saskatoon varieties. It is known to grow productively for more than 50 years.
