Planting distances for strawbs, gooseberries?
 

Can anyone tell me what distance I need to leave around each plant when I put
in my strawberries, gooseberry (careless), raspberries (autumn bliss) and
redcurrent (not yet puchased)? Many thanks

strawberries about 18inches apart
gooseberry 3-4ft remembering you have to get in between them to prune and
they're spikey!
raspberries 12-18 inches in lines
redcurrant about 3ft apart
hope this helps!

Or if you're pushed for space/want to get in a bigger range of
varieties, then Redcurrants and Gooseberries can be grown as cordons
spaced 15-18inches apart in the row for single cordons.

Thank you very much, Glenn and Rod. But, I forgot to add rhubarb to the list!
How much space does it need? Thanks

One plant will cover a 6ft but 6ft square.

I inherited redcurrants growing close together, some 18", but in a line, and
they crop profusely, so this backs up the cordon info.

Oh my goodness; I won't have any garden left at this rate!
