Gooseberry hybrids? (Tom)
Having grown gooseberries most my adult life I am interested with different cultivars and grow many old varieties like Early Sulphur for desert flavour. I saw here on your site that Hinnomaki Yellow is used in one of your hybrid gooseberries. Is H. Yellow used in Lady Sun & Lady Late types too or others ?
