Red currants are among the most beautiful of edible ornamentals. Bright, shiny, red, gem-like clusters of fruit are striking in the garden and they enhance any dish to which they are added. High quality fruit is excellent for jams, jellies and sauces, and it has considerable health benefits, including high quantities of vitamin C and potassium.
