Gooseberry. (Full season pack) \nGooseberries are small, nutritious fruits about the size of large grapes, but are more round in shape. \nRelated to currants, (black, red and white) they have been a popular British fruit since way back in Elizabethan times. \nGooseberries vary in colour and can be green, yellow, pink, red, and even dark purple \nSome varieties also have sparce, thin hairs. \nTaste varies from tart to sweet depending on the variety. \nThey can be eaten straight from the bush but gooseberries are equally as good when used to make jams, pies, puddings, crumbles or the famous gooseberry fool. \nThey will tolerate a wide range of conditions but prefer a moist, well-drained soil. \nGooseberries crop best in full sun but they will tolerate a little light shade and can also be grown and cropped successfully in large containers. \nOur carefully selected pack is ed as mature plants and contains one each of the following varieties, Captivator, Hinnonmaki Green, Hinnomaki Yellow, Hinnomaki Red and Invicta. \nOccasionally we may have to substitute some varieties but the overall mix and quality will remain the same \nPack 5 Bare-root Plant \nBrowse the other SOFT FRUIT PLANTS we have in stock. \nyour Gooseberry (Full season Pack) in time for the new planting season \nORDER IMMEDIATELY \nNOVEMBER \nU.K. MAINLAND  \nIf you need some help or advice on growing your new plants > GROVEG, we think it is very useful. \nWe want you to be happy with your purchase and all our gooseberry bushes are checked and inspected visually before packing. at . .
