Jostaberry is a unique cross between a blackcurrant and a gooseberry, combining the best qualities of both into one productive fruit bush. Thornless stems make harvesting easy, while the large, glossy berries are packed with rich flavour and can be enjoyed fresh, frozen or used in jams, crumbles, juices and desserts.
Naturally vigorous and easy to grow, Jostaberry is self-fertile, so you only need one plant to produce reliable crops. It establishes quickly in the garden and rewards you with generous harvests year after year with very little maintenance.
Ideal for fruit gardens, allotments and kitchen gardens, Jostaberry thrives in a sunny or lightly shaded position with fertile, moisture-retentive soil. Prune annually to encourage healthy growth and abundant crops.
