A True Dessert Variety – Eat Straight from the Bush! This excellent variety has reasonably vigorous open and slightly spreading habit. Produces large firm fruits of delicate flavour with sugar content so high they can be eaten straight from the bush! The big early currants ripen from July and are perfect for puddings pies and desserts. It is powdery mildew resistant and is suitable for growing on wires or as a cordon.

Blackcurrant Bush: Ebony

Blackcurrant Bush: Ebony £6.95
At last we have come across a variety of Blackcurrant that when fully ripe is sweet enough to eat straight from the bush. Unlike the other varieties that we offer which are superb culinary varieties and great for puddings pies and preserves this is a true dessert variety. The currants are big and early ripening – we were picking fruit up to 18mm diameter in early July 2008 when let’s face it growing conditions were far from ideal – and are produced on moderately vigorous bushes that have an open slightly spreading habit. So easy picking plus easy eating!
