Redcurrant 'Laxton's Number One'

Redcurrant Laxton's Number One is a classic, heavy yielding redcurrant cultivar, producing long bunches of bright, crimson-red berries from mid-July. The flavoursome fruits are ideal for making jellies, desserts, wine, and can be frozen to use throughout the year.

This hardy garden shrub flowers late, making it perfect for parts of the country where late frosts are likely. It is the most mildew-resistant variety of redcurrant and thrives in moist, well-draining soil. Redcurrant Laxton's Number One prefers a sheltered, sunny spot and offers the biggest harvest when grown in full sun.
