A deciduous shrub bearing translucent white berries that are carried in loose bunches. White currants are a less pigmented variety of the red currant, with the fruit being slightly smaller and sweeter than red currants. They crop over a long season and ripen in autumn when they are easily picked. The sweet-tart fruit is high in Vitamin C and can be eaten fresh, or used in drinks and syrups, preserves, jams and jellies, and pies. Plants are also grown for their ornamental value.
