Ben Lomond is a well-established British blackcurrant variety and a great choice for anyone wanting a reliable crop of good-sized, flavoursome fruit.

The berries ripen in the mid to late part of the blackcurrant season and have a rich traditional blackcurrant flavour. They are excellent for eating, baking, jams, preserves, freezing and making your own cordials.

Ben Lomond produces a strong, productive bush and is well suited to growing in gardens, allotments and fruit plots across the UK. Like most blackcurrants, it performs best in a sunny position with fertile, moisture-retentive but well-drained soil.

A good dependable choice if you are looking for a traditional blackcurrant variety with plenty of flavour.
