Gooseberry Careless

‘Careless' is one of the most popular and commonly known Gooseberry varieties within the country and a winner of the RHS Award of Garden Merit. These tasty fruit will produce high yields of crisp tasting, yellow coloured fruit which is fully ripe by mid-July. Sometimes known as Ribes, it has been a traditional favourite in the UK since the 19th Century. Their popularity lies in their culinary versatility, ease of growing and suitability to our climate. Reaching a mature height of one metre, they can planted within the garden border or in containers for gardeners that have less space. We recommend planting in sunny areas of the garden in well-drained soil, where they will thrive. Supplied as bare rooted plants they can easily be planted on arrival in rows at around 1.5m apart.
