Jostaberry Bare Root Bush
Available to order now for November 2012 delivery
A well know cross between the gooseberry and the blackcurrant. The fruits look like blackcurrants but are about the same size as gooseberries.
The bush is pretty compact and needs to be pruned back to have a short trunk of about 15cm with plenty of branches. Every winter prune back (thin) about 1/3 of the branches ready for next year.
