Customer Tips & Reviews Currant - Black
Exeter Adelaide, SA, Australia
Currant - Black
Potato peels or old potatoes chopped up should be placed or dug in near the roots, or water the plant around the roots with a mixture of potato starch and water. The shrub just loves it and you end up with big juicy berries when they start fruiting
Albany, WA, Australia
Need more chill for these than we receive. Fruiting has been poor.
