The fruit is very rich in vitamin C and potassium.\u00a0 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.<\/p>\n<p>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.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"[caption id=\"attachment_1077\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"300\"]<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1077\" src=\"https:\/\/vegetolab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Ben-sarek-bonne-dimension-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Ben sarek\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vegetolab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Ben-sarek-bonne-dimension-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vegetolab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Ben-sarek-bonne-dimension-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/vegetolab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Ben-sarek-bonne-dimension-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/vegetolab.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Ben-sarek-bonne-dimension.jpg 580w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/> Ben sarek[\/caption]\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[683],"product_tag":[603,559,488,596,594],"class_list":{"0":"post-5822","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","5":"product_cat-blackcurrant-en","6":"product_tag-black-currant-en","7":"product_tag-black-fruit-en","8":"product_tag-large-fruit-en","9":"product_tag-purple-rose-flowers","10":"product_tag-small-shrub-en","12":"first","13":"outofstock","14":"taxable","15":"shipping-taxable","16":"purchasable","17":"product-type-variable"},"group_of_quantity":0,"min_quantity":0,"max_quantity":"","exclude_order_quantity_value_rules":"no","exclude_category_quantity_rules":"no","combine_variations":"no","acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/vegetolab.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/5822","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/vegetolab.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/vegetolab.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/vegetolab.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5822"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vegetolab.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=5822"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vegetolab.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=5822"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vegetolab.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=5822"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
