Originating from Ukrainian breeding programmes, Gooseberry Kamieniar is a robust and reliable cultivar prized for producing generous crops of large, greenish-yellow berries with a pleasantly sweet flavour. This hardy, deciduous fruit bush is well suited to UK gardens and arrives outdoor garden ready with a 17cm root ball, allowing for easy planting straight into borders, fruit gardens, or larger containers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKamieniar is noted for its vigorous, upright growth habit and good resistance to common gooseberry diseases, including American gooseberry mildew.
