Flowering Currant Hedge (Ribes Sanguineum)

Online Catalogue |  Flowering Currant Hedge (Ribes Sanguineum)

Flowering Currant (Ribes Sanguineum)
Flowering Currant (Ribes Sanguineum)
Flowering Currant is great as a single species flowering hedge but also as a component in a mixed hedge. It is deciduous and its flowers appear before the leaves. The flowers are formed in showy crimson pnedulous highly scented clusters often smothering the plant and are an excellent early nectar for bees. They are followed in Autumn by blue/black currant like fruits with a white bloom. Its tooth serated leaves have a strong scent when crushed.

It likes most soils other than very alkaline, must have some moisture, and will perform well in full or partial sun or even light shade. It is suitable for coastal situations.

There is a view that Flowering Currant should be pruned in late summer but we find it performs better as a hedge if you cut back flowering stems to a strong pair of buds immediately after flowering.

Prices shown are the price per plant. Planting distance is very much a matter of choice. For bare roots, 3 plants per metre is adequate, 5 is good, 7 makes a dense hedge quicker. Smaller plants are generally planted at higher density than tall plants. Pot grown plants have recommended densities shown but you can increase or reduce this density dependent on your level of patience.
