Harvest

Harvest
  • Juicy berries, ideal for cooking
  • Disease and frost resistant
  • Standard trained tree with clear stem and formed fruiting head
  • Easy to reach for picking and pruning
  • Striking form even without fruit

A heavy cropping, large fruited, modern variety that ripens from July through to August. Grow your own delicious blackcurrants from your patio! Bursting with flavour and Vitamin C, blackcurrant 'Titania' has a rich, tart flavour that makes it ideal for cooking and for using as a purée. Add it to yoghurt or ice cream, or use in pies, jams or juices. The glossy black berries also freeze well.

Standard formed plants have been trained over several seasons to have a single clear stem and a formed head where the fruit is produced. Very different to the normal bush versions, these will add a striking focal point in the garden or plot. They look fantastic even without fruit on. As these are at a comfortable height, there is no more bending down to trim and pick fruit. The height also reduces the susceptibility to diseases, as the improved air flow and light levels keep the plant in much healthier condition. Trim vigourous non fruiting new shoot back to the head size in July and then trim all shoots by half or to the size of head you require in winter.

Guide To Plant Sizes

Bare Root Plants: Several of our plants come supplied as bare roots. Despite appearances, they are alive and well. They have been previously grown in the ground and lifted when dormant throughout the winter months, so that when you receive them, they are strong, full of energy and ready to be planted out. This is our most economical way to buy many plant varieties including roses, strawberries, trees and bushes.


Seedlings: Seedlings are young plants that have grown from seeds and are still small, usually with just a few leaves. They are in the early stages of growth and are ready to be potted on or planted outdoors to continue developing.


Plug Plants: A wide range of our varieties come in plug size, including Strawberries, Tomatoes, Chillis, Peppers, Cucumbers and Courgettes. Grown in individual cells with a bio-degradable membrane that will break down in the soil, no need to remove before planting. Pot and grow on to form larger plants that can be planted later in the season. Protect from frost if necessary.


9cm Plants: Our 9cm plants are larger and much more established than our plug ranges, meaning they are ready to plant out straight away. These will establish quickly and produce flower and fruit much quicker than smaller plugs. Protect from frost if required.


1L+ Plants: A substantial plant with many already developed flowers or even early onset of fruit if the season has been early. Great for filling in gaps or plating into patio containers.


Grafted Plants: Grafted plants are created by joining together two different plant varieties, typically by attaching the stem of one onto the root system of another. This process allows for desirable traits, such as disease resistance or better fruit production, to be combined into a single plant.
