- The largest black currant variety in our latitudes is "Exotic". According to the authors, the berries of this variety reach 3.5 g, but they are often larger than cherries. They are similar to Isabella grapes not only in size but also in taste. In addition to the large-fruited variety, the variety has one more advantage: it is resistant to powdery mildew and kidney mites. Unfortunately, while "Exotic" fully justifies its name: in the garden this variety of black currant is a great rarity, but, apparently, this new product has a great future.

High self-fertility and productivity. The berries are oval, medium-sized, with a firm skin. They have a sweet and sour taste. The mass of the berry is 2 grams.

I really liked Selechenskaya. But there is one "but" in sweet varieties: the sweeter and larger the berries, the less vitamin "C" in them, the exception is the "Dove Seedling", it is both sweet and vitamin. So, at least, they write in the horticultural literature.

The variety is universal, drought-resistant, winter-hardy, high-yielding (from a bush - 4-5 kg of berries). Suitable for any region of Russia. The bush is erect, vigorous, does not require a garter.

More than 200 varieties of currants have been bred for different regions of the country. Their main advantages are large fruits, good resistance to diseases, pests and excellent taste. However, choosing the right variety for your site and taste can be difficult. According to the descriptions, one variety is more beautiful than the other.
What kind of currant is the sweetest, i.e. contains the maximum amount of useful sugars and the minimum amount of acids? It turns out that the Belarusian sweet variety is not at all so widespread in our country. After many years of research, a group of specialists from the Research Institute of Breeding of Fruit Crops has compiled a rating of the sweetest varieties of black currant. In the top three - the varieties "Otlnitsa", "Nina", "Bagheera". Their berries contain about 11 percent sugars and are especially good for dessert.

It is believed that Vigorous --- the size of the berries is up to 8 g, I wrote it out from two places --- it was inflated, although a large one was sent, but definitely not Vigorous, it does not match in description, size, ripening time. But from the third address they also sent a black currant called NORA, and although it does not match either Nora or Yadrenaya with the characteristics, the berry turned out to be super - sweet and huge in size, I have many large-fruited varieties, but this is something !
Galina Fofanova
Variety "Viper" ripens late, but its round or oval berries can reach 8 g in weight, they are larger than cherries! However, in the middle zone of the country, the berries are not so large. The flesh of the berries is dense, refreshingly sour. Not for sweet lovers! Semi-spreading, medium-sized bush. Up to 3.5 kg of berries are harvested from one bush. It is the most popular variety, resistant to diseases and pests. Requires regular anti-aging pruning.

The "Exotic" variety is also universal, large-fruited. The bush is fruitful, fast-growing, erect, medium-tall. The berry is round, tasty, dessert, sweet and sour, up to 5 g, with a thin skin, perfectly stored in the refrigerator for several days. The variety is frost-resistant, weakly affected by diseases and pests.

But the owner of the most vitamin berries - the variety "Muravushka." It is from "Muravushka" that the most useful compotes, juices and five-minute jam are obtained. Another feature of the variety is indicated by its name: almost until the very frosts, its leaves do not turn yellow and do not dry out. Therefore, "Muravushka" can rightfully be considered not only a berry, but also an ornamental variety of black currant, which can form a wonderful green hedge, which will be not only beautiful, but also useful.
