The De Gröna variety is a low-growing, compact plant about 0.6 meters tall. The fruits are large, green in color, and have a sweet-and-sour taste characteristic of blackcurrant. Due to the specific color of the berries, the variety attracts fewer birds.
The plant is a late-ripening variety, with harvest occurring in August. The variety is low-maintenance and develops best in sunny areas with moisture-retentive and nutrient-rich soil. Suitable for cultivation in home gardening.
