I like them - as long as they're not too hairy/bristly

[askyourgran]

Love dessert gooseberries my friend used to make some lovely jam with it. I like them in a crumble.

[merciasounds]

Gooseberries sorbet with a hint of lemon is delicious.

[lardhelmet]

Excellent mercia - nice to hear yours are not hairy!

[merciasounds]

Society, I cook them gently with lemon balm, delicious!

[society]

Lemon balm makes a very fragrant and flavourful tea.

[merciasounds]

I have lemon balm at the ends of my herb beds so when i brush past them i always get a lovely fragrance from it

My raspberries are looking healthy, tomorrow i'll put the canes in. hope they do better than last year (first year planting). No sign of any flower yet, must be because of the winter.
