Considered by some to be the best tasting of all black currants, Consort is a highly productive variety with medium sized fruit. The plants can be quite showy with their pretty clusters of sweet smelling, bell-shaped, white flowers in the spring which are very attractive to bees and butterflies. Soon the flowers are followed by the dark, black berries with their distinctive sweet/tart flavor that is perfect for fresh eating, jams, wine, pies, and preserves. Consort grows 3-6 feet tall and 3-5 feet wide. Can tolerate full sun, but prefers partial shade. Cold hardy to USDA zone 3.
Self-fertile (can produce fruit on it's own).
