I grew a heat-tolerant variety in Virginia, and the first year a plague of birds descended on said gooseberry plant and ate...every...one...of the berries. Bastards. I miss gooseberries, which are one of the few things you cannot grow well in California. Oooh…pretty.

It's a pretty small affair so I suspect some time before I can harvest anything from it. As it's little more than a cutting any idea how fast they grow or when one can expect to harvest fruit ?
