Wow, great collection of goosberries ❤! I have five bushes of Nesluchowski , love it . Similar size like your poorman, but way smaller size of the plant Greetings from Slovakia ❤

I have Hinnonmaki Red, Jahn’s Prairie and a native wild variety to Arkansas. I train my bushes like roses with a trunk of 6 inches and branches shaped like a vase. Gooseberries sucker mightily. I cut out all them so I don’t end up like Snow White’s Enchanted Briar Forest. I prefer the ripe berries. They are small but delicious. It’s like a cross between a plum and a raspberry. Thanks!

All of my gooseberries and currants are dieing. I think the high humidity is the issues. Looks like you have an amazing collection. I hope you do a a fulm tour sometime!

Thanks for the video. I suppose all varieties are equally susceptible to the gooseberry worm that eats the leaves. I've got the Hinnomaki Red, tastes like bubble gum :) grows in zone 4b fairly well. I like the idea of growing them as standards with a trunk.

I have Hinnonmaki Red, Captivator, and Invicta all fruiting for me for the first time this year and I thought Captivator was my favorite in size and flavor. I had a Jahn’s Prairie variety die on me so maybe I will replace it with a Poorman. Thanks for the review!

Black Velvet is pretty good and the bush grows crazy fast. Berries have been on the smaller size. The smaller berries make a good pie and/or jam. My Poorman almost died to mildew its first year, so I haven't gotten any berries yet. Birds have been my main gooseberry problem.

Black velvet is very good, better than hinnomaki red in my opinion. Way way better than pixwell

@@paul.1337 I planted a black velvet but it didn’t make it. I need to get it again maybe.

Oh bindweed… what a frickin monster

Gooseberries grow well in pots too, if a person doesn't have much space. My poorman made pounds of berries this year in a 4 gallon pot.

how do you keep the deer from eating them. Mine can't fruit because the deer love's their leaves.

@@milafriedrich7532 we dont have deer, we are between a freeway and railroad. They never cross into this strip of land. We are lucky
