Cape Gooseberry in Sheffield
 

Hello folks,
this year I have successfully grown some cherry tomatoes for the first time and would like to try something more exotic next year.

I was reading Roger Philips Vegeatable book and noticed that Cape Gooseberry needed the same conditions as tomato. I live near Sheffield, has anyone had expierience of growing these this far north and do you have any advice to give.

Hi All,
I have grown Cape Gooseberry`s in an unheated Greenhouse in Widnes near
Liverpool with no problems. take a ripe Cape Goosberry crush it to remove
the seeds and dry them out. save the seeds, and treat it as you would
Tomatoes. Good luck with it.
