This mix of organically grown currant soft fruit plants offers a perfect selection of Redcurrant (C2 pot), Whitecurrant (C3 pot), and Blackcurrant (C2 pot) varieties, providing a diverse and continuous harvest throughout the summer. Ideal for home gardeners and allotment growers, these vigorous and high-yielding shrubs produce an abundance of delicious, nutrient-rich berries that can be enjoyed fresh or used in jams, desserts, and juices.
Thriving in well-drained, fertile soil, currants prefer a sunny to partially shaded position and benefit from regular mulching to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Watering is essential during dry periods, particularly in the first few years while the plants establish their root systems. Pruning should be carried out in late winter to remove old wood, encourage new growth, and maintain an open structure that promotes good air circulation.
Redcurrants and Whitecurrants grow in compact bushes, producing beautiful translucent berries that are perfect for fresh eating and culinary use. Blackcurrants are more vigorous and produce dark, richly flavoured berries, high in vitamin C and antioxidants. Together, this mix provides a wonderful balance of tart and sweet flavours, making it an excellent addition to any fruit garden. Easy to grow and rewarding, these organic currants ensure a healthy and flavourful harvest year after year.
