Blackcurrant 'Titania'

FamilyGrossulariaceae

Ribes nigrum ‘Titania’, commonly known as ‘Titania’ blackcurrant, is a deciduous fruit shrub with an upright, vigorous habit, renowned for its exceptional hardiness and high productivity. Highly valued in Nordic climates, it produces long clusters of deep black fruits in summer that are rich in flavor and antioxidants. Its discreet, slightly greenish spring blossoms attract pollinators and ensure abundant fruit set. Its dense green foliage, slightly aromatic when crushed, effectively structures the vegetable garden or a fruiting hedge. Ribes nigrum ‘Titania’ prefers full sun to partial shade exposure and rich, cool, well-drained soil to optimize yield and fruit quality. Ideal for juices, jellies, syrups, and processing, it is a safe bet in nurseries.
