Commonly Asked Questions
Do you need two red currant bushes?
Red, pink, and white currants are self-fertile, so only one plant is needed to produce fruit. No need for additional plants nearby to set fruit.
Can you grow red currants in pots?
Absolutely! Redcurrants can be grown in large containers. They prefer full sun but can also thrive in partial shade, with slightly later ripening and less sweetness.
How to look after red currant bushes?
Redcurrant plants are quite hardy but should be placed in a sheltered spot to prevent wind damage. Ensure they have adequate moisture to produce large fruit and avoid frost-prone areas.
Where is the best place to plant a red currant bush?
Select a cool, moist, and well-drained site with rich clay loam soil. A sunny location with good air movement will yield the best results, though they can tolerate partial shade.
What type of soil do redcurrants like?
Redcurrants thrive in neutral to slightly acidic soils with good drainage. Avoid poor drainage areas to ensure healthy growth and fruit production.
