Product Description
Black currants lend a wonderful tangy flavour to preserves of all sorts, and are an excellent source of vitamin C and antioxidants. Some pruning is required for maximum yields, but left to itself it will still produce well. We like to freeze them and use them in smoothies. This is a productive and low-maintenance shrub that deserves to be much more widely planted.
‘Ben Conan’ – A natural dwarf, growing to 3′ high, producing masses of large, black berries that make a delicious jam.
‘Ben Sarek’ – Introduced from Scotland, this hardy shrub produces large crops of big, juicy berries on a 4′ bush.
‘Titania’ – Large, juicy berries with rich, mild flavour. One of the most popular varieties for commercial production.
