Plant Sentry™

Plant Sentry is designed to protect both consumers and the nursery trade from invasive plant pests and diseases. Sites that display the Plant Sentry protection badge are protected from consumers buying and nurseries shipping material carrying invasive pests and diseases.

This proprietary eCommerce software prevents the shipment of a restricted plant to each state. The Plant Sentry system includes a shipment certification program. The Plant Sentry Compliance Officer works closely with NatureHills.com and each nursery or fulfillment center to ensure only compliant plants are sold to customers.

Once an item ships, you will receive shipment notification and tracking numbers, so you can follow along while your plant travels to your doorstep. We use FedEx, UPS, or USPS at our discretion.

 

Due to winter weather we have put a hold on shipping to the areas shown below in grey. You can still order now and we will ship the plant to you during an appropriate time for your zone.

Gooseberry is not a common fruit in America and that's a shame! Fresh Gooseberries are a real treat! They have a taste that can be sour grape-y, or like fresh apples or plums, or like tropical fruit, depending on when you harvest them. Among Gooseberries, the Pixwell Gooseberry (Ribes 'Pixwell') is a top performer!

Pixwell is a handsome shrub from spring to fall all on its own, but it is made all the more valuable because it provides delectable, edible fruit from July to September. The longer you wait, the sweeter they become. Pick them green or be patient and wait while they change from red to plum-colored. Most often they are picked right between the green and red stages when they are nice and firm. 

Once fully ripe, use the juicy berries in beverages and desserts, as well as being made into preserves, chutneys and sauces! Green fruits are often used for sweet-tart wine, pies and preserves that hold their shape after being baked.

Planting and Application:

It has a spring bloom of flowers that you probably won't notice. However, bees and butterflies certainly will, making this plant a valuable asset to your yard's wildlife in the spring as well as in the fall. Plant in rows or groupings to not only boost pollination and your harvest but also provide habitat for birds and wildlife and calls pollinators galore!

Tall enough for great privacy and living fences that neighbors won't mind, or as rows along your home's foundation as an accent row and edible landscaping borders, backdrops and property division. Pixwell looks great planted in a group, along a fence, or planted as a single spotlight in your garden. Plant around your entertaining areas for a unique conversation starter! Enclose your kitchen and herb gardens with juicy healthy berries!

  • Nutritious Goose Berries
  • Mid-Sized Shrubs & Handsome Green Lobed Foliage
  • Great for Pollinators & Beneficial To Wildlife
  • Nearly Thornless
  • Edible Berries For Pies & Preserves

#ProPlantTips for Care:

Your Pixwell Gooseberry will love a sunny spot in your landscape. Provide at least 6 hours of direct light a day. Plant in an enriched, well-drained location with a good layer of mulch over the soils surface to protect the root system. It's almost thornless, mildew resistant and easy to prune when dormant.

  • Full Sun
  • Moderately Moist Soil
  • Well-Drained Fertile Location
  • Very Cold Hardy & Mildew Resistant
  • Prune While Dormant

Gooseberries have been prized for generations, and this variety will be an outstanding asset to your garden and kitchen pantry. The more plants you buy, the more fruit you'll have! Order yours today from NatureHills.com
