The Story

  • This elegant deciduous shrub boasts strongly scented deep pink flowers in April and edible blackcurrants in summer
  • Extremely wildlife friendly, this shrub attracts bees for the pollen and birds for the berries
  • Perfect for difficult growing conditions including coastal and windy spots, this makes a great specimen plant in a border or an informal hedge (we've seen it used to great effect interspersed with hawthorn and blackthorn)
  • A fully hardy, medium growing shrub which will reach a height of up to 3m but can easily be maintained at a lower height
  • Plant for flowers not fruit - this variety does pair perfectly with currant plants bred for productivity though
