Green gooseberries can be eaten straight from the bush In March and April, pretty pale green flowers are produced on Ribes uva-crispa Hinnonmaki Green. The fruits develop in abundance from early summer, ripening from July onwards and are ready to be picked. Hinnonmaki gooseberry plants have been specifically bred for exceptional hardiness, vigour and disease and mildew resistance - making for a reliable, satisfying crop year after year. With a neat habit, Ribes uva-crispa Hinnonmaki Green is a self-fertile variety which is ideal for more compact spaces, growing to a mature height and spread of around 1.5m. Position in full sun or light shade, on neutral, free-draining, fertile soil. Gooseberries produce fruit on last years growth, so expect a good harvest the second year after planting. Prune lightly in late winter, aiming for an open shape, and removing any unwanted suckers from the base. Given an RHS hardiness rating of H6, meaning no winter protection will be required, just mulch generously with well-rotted manure in the spring.
