I have a love of gooseberries from childhood and memories of my Grandma ‘head & tailing’ them on a hot July day. My gooseberry bush came from a supermarket in 2004 and has turned into a superb fruiter. I regularly get in excess of 10 kg gooseberries off it despite attacks of gypsy moth caterpillars & sawfly over the years. It also makes a good background foil for the Magic Garden and place for the birds to hide.
