Description

First introduced in Sweden, Blanca bears huge crops of very large, especially sweet currants reliably, year after year. Blooming relatively late in the spring, Blanca frequently escapes those pesky late frosts that hinder other varieties. Very high yields of pretty white berries make a classic jelly. Ripens in July. Spring shipment only.

My Hardiness Zone ?

The USDA hardiness zones offer a guide to varieties that will grow well in certain climates. Each zone corresponds to the minimum winter temperatures experienced in a given area. Make sure that your hardiness zone lies within the zone compatibility range of this variety before ordering.

Pollination

This variety is self pollinating.

In many cases, you may still want to plant pollinating partners to increase the size of your crops, but with self-pollinating varieties doing so is optional. You'll get fruit with only one plant!
