Blackcurrant plant.....potted
This healthy little Blackcurrant plant is about 30 or 40 cms high. Will put on quite a bit of growth through the Summer.
Blackcurrants ripen just before Christmas. I've had them for years with no known diseases. No need to spray them.
Great for making jam or blackcurrant fruit juice.
You do not need to top and tail them as you might Gooseberries before you eat or cook them.
The plant pictured in the pot is the one for sale. Will pay for itself in a few years. Theyre are quite a good hedge too, though they do lose their leaves in the winter. A metre or so high windbreak perhaps.
Thanks for looking.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
