BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
‘CURRANT ELGON’ is a product of a breeding and selection program which had the objective of finding color mutants of ‘ELGON’.

The first act of asexual reproduction of ‘CURRANT ELGON’ was accomplished when vegetative cuttings were taken from the initial selection in August 1998 in Rijsenhout Holland.
