Jahns Prairie Gooseberry vs Russian White Mulberry
Morus alba tatarica
Ribes oxyacanthoides Jahns Prairie
NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON
ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW
Russian White Mulberry is a cold hardy and adaptable tree. It is a great choice for the impatient gardener as it reaches its mature height in a short period of time and has an attractive, dense, and rounded form.
Odd looking berries are produced among a backdrop of glossy, deep green foliage. The blackberry-esque berries ripen slowly over the season, ranging in color from white, pink, and purple-violet. While the berries are not well regarded for fresh eating, they have made tasty jams and preserves.
Jahns Prairie Gooseberry produces large, delicious red fruit.
Found in the Red Deer River valley by Dr. Otto Jahn in 1984. This cultivar was found to resist insects and disease, tolerate frost, and produce high quality fruit.
