Blackcurrant Ben Connan \nA compact early season variety bred at the Scottish Crop Research Institute. \nProduces very heavy crops and picking can begin in mid July. \nThe exceptionally large berries of Ben Connan have a superb rich flavour. \nIt can yield up to 8 lbs of fruit per established plant and may crop for up to 15 years. \nCan be used to make jams, jellies, puddings and pies. \nGood resistance to Leaf Curling Midge, American Gooseberry Mildew and Leaf Spot makes Ben Connan a good choice for organic growers. \nThe bushes are also extremely frost tolerant making them very useful in colder areas. \nPlanted in full sun on any light, well drained, moist site the bushes will eventually reach a height of 120 cms. \n As with all blackcurrants Ben Connan should be planted in rows with 1.4 metres between the plants and 1.5 metres between the rows. \n Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit (AGM). \nPack 1 Bare-root Plant \nWe have many other SOFT FRUIT PLANTS in stock. \nEnsure season \nORDER IMMEDIATELY \n \nU.K. MAINLAND  \nClaire's Allotment has some great ADVICE to help you plant your new bushes. \nWe want you to be happy with your purchase and all our Blackcurrant plants are checked and inspected visually before packing. at . .
