It is a bushy shrub with slightly carmine leaves that give off the characteristic smell of fruit.

Depending on the species, they are sweet, juicy or dry and tasteless. The fruit is very rich in vitamin C and potassium.  The berries of the blackcurrant, rarely used as table fruit, are mainly used in the composition of liqueurs or jams. The buds produce an essence used in perfumery.

Blackcurrant thrives in deep, clayey, humus-rich, neutral to acidic soil. Full sun or light shade, zone 2. Cross-pollination is not necessary for blackcurrant, but it results in a marked increase in yields.
