Green, mildew-resistant variety. Very thorny but the heaviest cropping gooseberry. Excellent for cooking.
Flavour
Invicta offers a sharp, tangy flavour with a subtle sweetness, making it ideal for balanced dishes. Its bright acidity holds up well under heat.
In the kitchen
Perfect for slow-roasting or grilling over coals, Invicta gooseberries break down to a rich, fruity sauce that complements smoky meats and game. They also add a vibrant tartness to BBQ chutneys and marinades.
Growing
This variety thrives in well-drained soil with full sun exposure. Its strong mildew resistance and vigorous, thorny growth habit require careful pruning and spacing to maintain airflow.
