Do any of you grow jostaberries? Sounds like they're a cross between gooseberries & black currants. I have only had gooseberries once, but if I remember right, they were pretty good. I've never had black currants, but I have had red. They were very tart, but I did like the flavor. (I tried to make sorbet out of them, but I didn't do a great job... ) I'm considering using them for the shrubs in front of my porch, with edible berries as a bonus.
I'm wondering what the taste is like, and if you can eat them straight from the bushes. I'm also wondering about the growth habit of the bushes, if they'd be too unruly to plant in front of my porch (at the back of the proposed flower garden)
