A very special new variety that we are very pleased to introduce. Ben Corman is superb for growing in the garden with very large high quality fruits. These enormous berries can be as large as 18mm each. The fruit ripens early with extremely heavy crops and the fruit has an excellent flavour. Ben Connan is not susceptible to Mildew and has resistance to Leaf Curling Midge. Ben Connan is easy to pick, easy to grow with its good compact habit, suitable for pies, preserves, yogurts etc. Super for exhibition. Raised by the Scottish Crop Research Institute, Ben Connan is a cross between Sarek and Lomond and ripens about one week earlier than Lomond which it outyields. Very, very highly recommended.







We have in place very rigorous standards for the health,
providence and uniformity of all our fruiting plants & trees. Our Nursery and the stock we grow is
inspected and passported for health regularly by DEFRA experts [formerly the Ministry of Agriculture]
and we have in place our own stringent controls and inspection programmes to ensure our fruiting
bushes and trees are the best, most disease free stocks available and truly beyond compare.
We always propagate from certified stock where this exists and have the highest standards regarding providence
and grading. If only the very best will do – as it should – then you can rely on a Chris Bowers fruiting
plant to give the most exemplary results available. We firmly believe that only the very healthiest
stock can and does produce vastly superior results – and it shows.
