VAT is not chargeable on these plants.
Gooseberries are easy to grow and should be planted in rich, moist, loamy soil, preferably with good air circulation, sunny but not too hot. They are less likely to be attacked by birds than most soft fruit so netting should not be necessary.
Hinnonmaki Red produces heavy crops of medium sized, good flavoured, sweet red berries of excellent quality for dessert or cooking. Vigorous, very hardy plants which are resistant to mildew and low growing so ideal for small gardens. Self-fertile. Fruits June to mid July. 2 year bushes. Plant 1.5m (5ft) apart.

Br = Bare Root Plant
Bare-Root Plants
Bare-root plants are sold without a pot/soil around the roots. This is a more cost effective and environmentally friendly way of growing plants. To ensure the best plant health we do not store our plants in cold storage, but they are left in our field or plant beds until they are ready for packing or collection.
Items marked Br are bare rooted plants grown from cuttings and are typically 1-2 years old.
Availability
Bare rooted plants are only available when the plants are dormant (typically from late November to March).
If a plant is currently out of stock because it is out of season (for example, bare rooted plants in summer) or we have sold out but we are expecting more to be available you can pre-order the plant. We only charge credit/debit cards when an order is despatched, not when an order is placed.
