Tried looking at various sites on the net without any luck. A dear
friend back in Kaminsa, Indiana had introduced this shrub to me, but
unfortunatly she has moved to a new area, and when we went to visit
last time around the new owners wouldn't let us trespass on their
property, even with our valiant attempts to view.

So where does one get this? Seed Savers Exchange and Southern Exposure Seed
Exchange do list a few varieties, but where does one look for seeds for all
the other varieties?

NE Indiana, zone 5B, where whatever variety of Cape gooseberry I have is
looking good and cranking out the fruit. From past memory, I would say that
it will be end of July or early August before the first fruit is ripe.
