I love Rasberries and Blackcurrants and I have just got a grape vine which I am going to attempt to grow as I live in the north east I may have to plant  the pot outside and the growth inside the greenhouse although this year we have had a fab summer but we cannot always guarantee nice weather.
may the ducks quack be with you

Fuchsia - the large flowing type have sweet juicy fruits, with the bonus of really pretty flowers.

I have a jostaberry

The growth is very similiar to a blackcurrent but fruit is much bigger.

I have had one for a couple of years and its a great cropper over 6lbs of fruit and the birds largely leave them alone i did not net it this year

I have jostaberries and casielle (another blackcurrant gooseberry cross), they are too young to say how well they crop, not even a single casielle this year, but the jostaberries are gorgeous.  :) My honey berries are on their second year, no fruit yet and very slow growing.
