Does anyone here have a blackcurrent bush??
if so, do they smell like cat wee? or am I have a problem in the garden with a cat watering it for me? Sorry have to ask, but it does kinda smell like that.
All currants smell like cat's wee.
PHEW :D thanks for that, It would have put me off eating them. wonder why they smell of wee?
They don't, but cats pee smells like blackcurrant bushes ;D
How do you know. Do you smell cats pee. My blackcurrants smell lovely, I think, hope. Anyway do you mean the bushes or the blackcurrants, as they are not ready yet, and my bushes don't smell. Have you got a problem with cats. I will just get some blackcurrants out of the freezer and smell them.
The sense of smell varies between us like taste buds.
One person adores cucumber another hates it.
The things I think stink worst are geraniums.
Yes currant bushes do smell, I do not dislike it but my mother always complained they stank of cats. She adored black currant jam so I had to have her currant bushes in my garden. So she could make her jam from them.
I always think some one has left the gas on, unlit, when I smell bleach.
yes the bushes smell like when a tom cats marked its territory. But the fruit don't I don't think.
I like smelling my black currant bushes, find the smell very pleasant. I agree I can't stand the smell of geraniums, it gets on your hands when planting them. Actually I don't really like geraniums at all. A bit off topic but I do love the smell of TCP. Just off for a quick sniff.
