Ribes × nidigrolaria, commonly known as the jostaberry, is a hybrid shrub derived from crossing blackcurrants (Ribes nigrum) with gooseberries (Ribes grossularium). This deciduous to semi-evergreen shrub produces dark, round berries that combine the flavor characteristics of both parent species, offering a unique taste between blackcurrant and gooseberry. The plant is vigorous, productive, and relatively disease-resistant, making it a valuable addition to temperate fruit gardens.
