Hello all

I'm replanting various black currant, red currant, gooseberry, raspberry.

The strip of ground in question ranges from
full sun all day to partly shaded in the afternoon.

Which of these need the most sun ?
Which will tolerate - or even prefer - a little afternoon shade ?

Hey...
My fruit growing book (now sadly discarded) says that black currants are
more tolerant of shade than other soft fruit ....but I've never grown any.
However, for years I have grown gooseberry and red and white currants in
almost permanent shade, except for evening sun, and have always had near
branch-breaking crops of VG quality fruit.
My raspberry plants have sun all day with shade in late afternoon, again
with excellent results.
