Read detailed description :

French variety, appreciated for the firm and aromatic berries, excellent in cakes and jams. Berries are picked in mid to end of July. Forms an erect little shrub, resistant to cold weather. The buds and leaves give off a strong scent of blackcurrant. Appreciates a neutral soil, covered with straw to keep fresh, and a half-shady exposure, if growing in regions with hot summers.
