Renowned as the sweetest blackcurrant ever, Blackcurrant 'Ebony' is an outstanding dessert variety offering an exceptional taste experience. The large, firm currants produced by 'Ebony' are so sweet that they can be enjoyed straight from the bush when fully ripe. Revel in heavy crops of these delectable currants, with each one boasting twice the size of a normal blackcurrant. Harvesting is a breeze, thanks to the slightly open, spreading habit of the bushy plants. Estimated time to cropping once planted: 4-8 months for premium bareroot plants. Estimated time to best yields: 16-20 months. Expect a mature height and spread of 120cm. Supplied as established, healthy 1-year old bareroot cordon pre-pruned plants which will quickly establish once planted.
