I haven't even heard of them Mal, I hope they do well for you.
I was born with nothing and have most of it left.

Do you grow Jostaberries too ?? Was wondering what they taste like?

We have a jostaberry bush. They taste like a gooseberry, but look like a large blackcurrant. Be warned the bushes grow huge and are very productive. Make nice chutney.
