They're a cross between a gooseberry and a blackcurrant. The fruit is larger than a blackcurrant but not as big as a gooseberry. Its spineless and doesn't seem to be troubled by sawfly.
Don't try Worcesterberry as they're a similar cross but have even worse thorns than gooseberries. I grow them as a hedge.
.....You forgot to mention, they are tasteless! Tongue Smile
