Enjoy the unique convenience of three currant varieties – red, black, and white – all growing on a single braided stem. ‘Currant Trio’ offers a bountiful harvest of delicious, versatile fruits throughout July and August. Perfect for fresh eating or using in jams, jellies, juices, wines, and liquors, this trio combines sweet and sour flavours to delight any palate. The selected varieties Jonkheer van Tets, Titania, and Witte Hollander are known for their excellent yields, hardiness, and resistance to disease, making them ideal for both beginner and experienced gardeners.
This currant collection thrives in rich, moist, well-drained soil and prefers a sheltered spot in full sun or partial shade. Protect the plants from cold winds and late frosts to avoid flower damage and ensure a plentiful crop. Netting is recommended to protect the berries from birds during fruiting. Harvest currants from midsummer and enjoy fresh or preserved fruits all year round.
