Category: Plants

A deciduous, thornless, fruiting shrub that's well suited to hedging and edible landscapes, the Jostaberry was first released in 1977, with its name directly relating to its blackcurrant and gooseberry parents as well as its German background. High in Vitamin C, the ripe fruit has lovely blackcurrant notes while the unripe fruit shows more of the gooseberry flavours. Net to protect ripening fruit from birds.

Hazel ★★★★★

I've been enjoying how quickly my Jostaberry is filling in as a hedge—no thorns at all, which makes pruning so much easier. The blackcurrant-gooseberry hybrid is a unique flavor I hadn't tried before, and the fruit production this first summer has been impressive.

Claire D. ★★★★★

Just got this in the ground for a hedge row, and the fact it’s thornless makes it a winner already. Can’t wait to see if it really holds up to the fruiting promise, but the canes look sturdy enough.

Hazel ★★★★★

Planted three of these as a hedge last spring and they've already doubled in size. The fact that they're completely thornless makes pruning and harvesting so much easier than my gooseberry bushes.
