Description
Casseille
Casseille is a unique fruit bush. It is the outcome of a cross between a blackcurrant and a gooseberry. This resulted in a soft fruit with a delicious blackcurrant flavor. Casseille’s leaves resemble those of gooseberries, and the fruit resembles large blackcurrants. These fragrant fruits are high in vitamin C. They make an excellent addition to a fresh fruit salad or summer puddings. The bushes are self-fertile, and the berries can be picked starting in mid-July. Once planted, the cropping time is estimated to be one year. The time to best yield is estimated to be three years. Each thornless bush can yield several kilos of fruit with a very sweet flavour and a hint of tartness. Height and spread: 2m (6′, 6).
