Seams to be, but obviously it is still small and green, so just waiting to see really. My bush on the other side of the garden is fine.

Is it just on the leaves, do you have anything else around there that it could be on? Just wondering if it is environmental? If you hose it off does it come back?

I am just glad my blackcurrant bush is not fully operational yet :eek:

Mine is

Well, saying that, I planted it two years ago. It was supposed to be a red currant so it's in the redcurrant corner. Didn't get anything if it last year, which was ok because I figured it needed to do what it needed to do. Few weeks ago I look and think "they're big redcurrants". Turns out they're blackcurrants and have completely screwed my OCD fruit beds :mad: :rotfl:

O Yes now that is rather suave...just like me...;)

In case you don't know the meaning of suave bubbles...It's charming, sophisticated, debonair, urbane, worldly, worldly-wise, polished, refined, poised, self-possessed, dignified, civilized, gentlemanly, gallant; smooth, smooth-talking, smooth-tongued, silver-tongued, glib, bland, polite, well mannered, civil, courteous, affable, tactful, diplomatic, slick;

Yes, I think that describes me to a T..:rotfl::rotfl:

Your opinion:p:rotfl::rotfl:

I have a few currants on my bush this year. A couple of years ago I pulled out A LOT of dead wood from it, ended up leaving one new shoot coming up from the ground. It is looking great now and will be good for next year.

I think your OCD would go mad if you saw my garden. I have strawberries around the blackcurrant - they escaped from my strawberry pot - they I have my redcurrant, then my gooseberry. Down the bottom is my strawberry bed which is next to my grape vine. On the other side I have my apple in a pot, rosemary. raspberry bed (anyone remember those free raspberry plants we got a few years ago? They have a lot to answer for :eek: ), then I have a blackberry that was meant to be a Tayberry, rhubarb, then a couple of blueberry bushes.

Yep, sounds about right. Could be worse.

I have never had that problem with aphids or anything else. Will have to keep an eye out.
