What does your gooseberry bush look like now :shock: ie. does it have any new buds or is it still just woody stems. Mine is just woody stems with not one bud on i was wondering if i have murdered it :shock: :oops: or if it is in the dormant stage.

Mine is just woody stems as well, it's only the second year we have had it and I think that last year it was March-April time before it started to shoot.

I bought a couple of bushes a week ago and planted them in pots as I can't move them to the allotment yet and they have leaves on. Do I need to protect them from the frost or will they be ok?

Early ones are opening the buds now, others don't yet.
