Blackcurrant ‘Ben Connan’ is a well-known and popular old favourite and has won an RHS AGM, showing excellent disease and mildew resistance and roducing reliably heavy crops with minimal of fuss each year. This variety is slightly earlier to crop than many other blackcurrants, ripening from around July onwards, so it’s a great choice for extending the blackcurrant cropping season. Once established, which is normally after its second year, each plant can produce up to 3.5kg of fruit in one season! It’s long-lived too so you can expect a bountiful harvest annually for up to 10 years. The fruit have an outstanding flavour and are delicious eaten frewsh as well as cooked or used in preserves, pudding or juices.Blackcurrants prefer a position in full sun but will tolerate semi shade. Shelter from cold winds and late spring frosts as these conditions may damage the flowers and reduce the yield of fruit later in the year. Grow blackcurrants in rich, moist, well-drained soil, incorporating plenty of well-rotted manure into the ground prior to planting. Plant blackcurrant bushes between late autumn and spring, at a distance of 1.5m apart and a depth of 5cm lower than the soil mark on the stem. Planting blackcurrants slightly deep will encourage the production of extra stems from below ground level. After planting, reduce the stems to 2 buds above ground level to promote sturdy new growth.
