Give them a cutting.  If it does not work try again in fall.  Thing is
Gooseberries start off really early so they may not be dormant any more..
But it still could work.

Subject: [NAFEX] gooseberry cuttings

Someone has asked me for cuttings of my gooseberries, and I'd like to give
them, but everything I read says that the best time to take cuttings is in
autumn, before the leaves fall. How likely would it be that cuttings taken
now, in winter would succeed? Has anyone here tried it?
