On a slight aside. I am looking to replace two tired and I suspect very old bushes with something newer and more vibrant. I can't really take cuttings as they have had mildew. What would people recommend? I am probably going to use them for crumbles, pies, jam etc. rather than eating fresh but am always game for something new.

Also where would be the best source. I have had a look through my copy of Hessayon but it is quite old and I have little experience of fruit growing.

And ....... can I grow them alongside currants? I seem to think they are the same or a similar family.

No more questions on this for now
