Ribes Rubrum 'Jonkheer Van Tets'

 

Redcurrant 'Jonkheer Van Tets'

Redcurrant is a deciduous shrub that flowers in Spring, & in Summer produces lots of red edible currants.. Long stems grow from the plant base, and each branch requires pruning after ageing to a few years old. Redcurrants are self-fertile, which means you do not need to grow more than one bush in order for fruit to be produced.

Planting outdoors

From Early Autumn TO Late Autumn

Plant bare rooted plants asap after you receive in Autumn. Dig a hole twice the size of the spreaded roots, and mix well rotted compost with the soil, and plant the bush at the same depth, or a little lower. Firm in well, and mulch with compost.

 

Propagation by cuttings

From Mid Autumn TO Late Winter

Take hardwood cuttings of up to 3cm from this years growth, making a clean from above a shoot and remove any soft growth. Nearly fill a container with fine grit at the bottom, to enable free draining, and a suitable compost. Place the cutting, having dipped he end in a rooting compound first, with a third of the cutting showing.
