In the 2005-2008 period in the Institute of Mountain Stockbreeding and Agriculture, town of Troyan a study was conducted with the newly introduced black currant cultivar Titania. Its phenological stages and vegetative and reproductive characteristics were observed. Cuftivar Silvergieters Schwarze was used as a standard.
It was found that in the Troyan conditions the bushes of Titania were shorter and wider than those of the standard cultivar. The Titania fruits ripened within one week later than Silvergleters Schwarze. Cv. Titania was distinguished for a higher average yield – 1.12 kg/bush.
