Ribes uva-crispa ‘Hinnonmäki Röd’ is a robust and reliable red gooseberry variety, well known for its excellent flavour, heavy yields, and strong disease resistance. This hardy shrub produces medium to large, deep red berries with a firm texture and a perfect balance of sweetness and tanginess, making them ideal for fresh eating, baking, jams, and desserts. The fruit ripens in mid-summer and is packed with vitamin C and antioxidants, offering both delicious taste and nutritional benefits.

This variety thrives in well-drained, fertile soil and performs best in a sunny or partially shaded position.

Its compact growth habit makes it suitable for small gardens, allotments, or even large containers.

Highly resistant to mildew and other common gooseberry diseases, this variety is an excellent choice for organic growing. Whether enjoyed straight from the bush or incorporated into culinary creations, ‘Hinnonmäki Röd’ is a superb addition to any fruit garden.
