| I've recently become interested in incorporating more edible landscaping into my yard. Do any of you know if Red or black currants, serviceberries, or gooseberries will grow in North Texas? i cannot find any information about them locally. Thanks so much. |

| Gooseberries grow best in summer humid, cool regions with great winter chilling, it does like morning sun, afternoon part-shade and buoyant air circulation. They are most productive in full sunlight but the leaves sunburn easily under California conditions. They can be grown in the high shade of fruit trees such as persimmon or on the north side of buildings. American gooseberry are much more sun tolerant. Plants collapse quickly when soil or air temperature exceeds 85° F. |
