Fruit

• Crops in : Late July to August

Description

The highest yielding whitecurrant by far. Plants produce masses of large, sweet, almost translucent berries on long strings from late July through to August.

Currants have a long cropping season, freeze well and are perfect for pies and jams.

We supply established, healthy 1-year-old bare root plants which are ready pruned, with a minimum of 4 stems which will quickly establish once planted. From the second season onwards each plant will produce over 3.5kg (over 7lb) of fruit and will keep producing for up to 10 years.

Growing Instructions

For best results plant currants 1.5m (5 feet) apart with 1.8m (6 feet) between rows in an open sunny position, they can also tolerate partial shade. Prefers well drained, moisture retentive soil that has plenty of well rotted organic matter added to it.
