Ribes rubrum 'Rovoda'
The Ribes rubrum 'Rovada', also known as the 'Rovada' redcurrant, is a deciduous fruit bush renowned for its exceptional production of long clusters of very decorative, bright red currants. Its vigorous, bushy, and well-branched habit makes it an excellent choice for kitchen gardens, fruit hedges, or edible landscapes. In spring, small, discreet greenish flowers attract pollinating insects and herald abundant fruiting in summer. This variety is distinguished by its particularly long clusters and its translucent, firm, and juicy fruits with a refreshing tart flavor. Redcurrants are rich in vitamin C and are highly valued for jellies, jams, syrups, pastries, or fresh consumption. The lobed green foliage adds beautiful texture to the garden and releases a slight characteristic vegetal scent when crushed.
