Description

Ribes uva crispa ‘Captivator’. 3.7L coir pot.

This is a very popular variety, offering large, sweet fruit in summer.

A self-fertile, almost thornless perennial, this plant enjoys a full sun to part shade position in rich, organic soil, and should grow about 1.5m high by 1.5m wide.

Gooseberry plants like the cold. They perform well in areas with frost and long cold winters.

During the first winter, prune the plant to around 3-4 shoots, then 6-8 shoots during future winters.
