Description

Hinnonmaki Red Gooseberry Bushes

Hinnonmaki Red is a Finnish gooseberry, so for starters it is hardy. It is both an eating/dessert gooseberry with superb flavour straight off the bush and it also cooks and freezes well. It has a better flavour than Pax and should produce nearly 1Kg more fruit per bush (our record at home is 3.6 kg). The skin is ruby red and slightly tangy while the flesh is genuinely sweet.

Hinnonmaki Red gooseberries are upright plants and they are much more mildew resistant than Whinham's Industry. All in all a first-rate variety and a welcome addition to our range of gooseberry bushes for sale.

A Piece of Advice

Gooseberries are also one of the plants where we especially (as in really, really) recommend the use of Rootgrow (a recommended amount will be suggested to you at checkout). This really does speed establishment and in our experience it helps produce a significantly better plant and a very much better crop.

Planting Instructions

Hinnonmaki Red gooseberry plants should be planted in well prepared ground. They are going to be there for 15-20 years and time taken to remove stones, weeds and roots and improve the soil with plenty of well-rotted manure or garden compost will be well repaid.

Keep well watered while the plant is establishing and if possible keep the ground moist but not waterlogged in dry periods while the fruit is swelling in summer.

Pick over the plants to remove fruit as they ripen and you will both lengthen the fruiting season and increase the crop.
