Default Gooseberries and hot weather
ustible (AlleyCatStudio1) wrote in message ...
Hello all --

I recently ordered two Gooseberry plants ('Invicta' and 'Hinnonmaki Red'
cultivars). I've read that gooseberries "collapse" when the air temperature
exceeds 85 degrees: I live about half a mile from the south shore of Lake
Erie,...


You won't have any problem. I grow them in WV, and we have plenty of
days hotter than 85F. The bush bears heavily and has never
"collapsed."
