We seem to have some space on the allotment to grow fruit and would love to plant two or three blackcurrant bushes. Two questions:
Our allotment neighbour's blackcurrants are badly affected by 'bigbud'. How long will it take before our new plants would be infected? And is it worth growing them at all?
If we go ahead, what variety would you recommend? We used to have Wellington XXX some years ago and really liked them, particularly the berries grew in a long 'string' rather than singly.
