Many summer residents are surprised by the fact that some people plant currants at an angle.

Not everyone understands what this planting is associated with and how it can affect the future harvest.

An expert of the MOS SMI portal, agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh will tell you why it is important to plant a bush at an angle.

Ease of plant care

When the bush is at an angle, the branches and berries are away from the ground. This makes harvesting easier and more convenient, and the berries do not come into contact with dirt.

These shrubs are also easier to trim.

Sufficient lighting

Currants like to be in a sunny place. Sufficient lighting has a positive effect on the fruits. Due to the fact that the leaves do not cover each other, the bush begins to develop better.

Good ventilation and drainage

Currants placed at an angle receive good ventilation. This prevents many diseases, including root rot.
