Whitecurrant White Versailles Justly popular early variety of whitecurrant, very reliable, heavy-cropping and easy to grow; fruits well even in northern areas. Upright growth on a medium-sized bush which will produce for many years. Fruit borne on long, heavy ‘strigs’ which makes for easy picking. The currants are large, pale yellow and translucent, making a beautiful edible garnish for desserts and cakes as well as being lovely eaten fresh. Whitecurrants are much sweeter than redcurrants, and ‘White Versailles’ has a particularly sweet, delicate flavour.
