The Levushka blackcurrant variety features golden blackcurrants with oval, almost black berries that possess a sweet and aromatic taste with sour-sweet notes. The berries have a medium to large size, weighing from 1.2 to 2.6 grams, with a glossy skin of medium density without pubescence and a closed calyx. Thanks to their taste and biochemical qualities, the fruits are versatile in application: they are suitable for fresh consumption as well as processing into jams, jellies, compotes, juices, drying, and freezing.
Levushka bushes are moderately spreading and strongly growing with straight light-brown shoots. The variety is characterized by high winter hardiness, enduring frosts down to -49°C, as well as heat and drought resistance. Additionally, the plant is resistant to diseases and pests, which significantly eases care and increases crop reliability. The variety boasts high yield - from 5.3 to 7.0 kg per bush, while the berries ripen mainly in the second half of July, allowing for harvesting over a long period.
Levushka is well-suited for cultivation in well-lit areas, especially in regions with severe climates. Thanks to its undemanding nature and resistance to adverse conditions, this variety will be an excellent choice for gardeners seeking to obtain aromatic and tasty berries with high yield. Moreover, the variety is suitable for mechanized harvesting, which eases fruit collection and increases cultivation efficiency.
