The Nafex list is well worth the cost of my membership _and_ I get a 
Pomona!  A kind soul (Lee R.) heard of my plight and sent me a handful 
of Glenndale "sticks" and I was able to get some nice plants going this 
year - even with the spring drought and tough summer.  Edible 
Landscaping told me they would have salable stock this year - last year 
they had run out.

I don't know if any of you are still looking for Glenndale gooseberry, but I 
think Whitman Farms in Salem, Ore., may have it for sale next year.  And it 
continues to be available from Edible Landscaping in Virginia. -- Sam

Subject: [NAFEX] Glenndale Gooseberry Search


Sadly, as I have described, the weed-whacked Glenndale Gooseberry died,
a victim of modern technology.  In my search for a Glenndale
replacement, the only purveyor I can find is Edible Landscaping and they
are out.  Does anyone know where I can get a Glenndale Gooseberry?  I am
so sold on Gooseberries, I must have more...

I have Hinnomaki Red and Yellow, but noted with alarm that the Yellow
took a year off this year - no fruit!  So I am required to plant more
Gooseberries to make sure my habit can be fed, now that I have stopped
the critter-eaters.

I would also welcome suggestions of a Gooseberry that would work here
and produce loads of tasty fruit!
