Does anyone grow white or pink currants such as Primus?  I grow black
currants, but keeping the birds from them is a trial.  I've wondered if I'd
have better luck with other currants instead.  I've heard that birds don't
generally bother the lighter colored fruits-something about birds not
recognizing the fruit as ripe because of its color.

 

Can anyone confirm or deny this?  Do you grow other currants that birds
don't bother?
