I think for up here folks have had a hard time getting them in the ground early enough to fruit so they need a longer season than tomatoes, I guess or maybe folks just have been more used to buying tomato transplants and don't get started with their cape gooseberry soon enough. Mine were planted 2-3 weeks ago and should do okay, I hope.
