You got a serious problem there dude.Originally Posted by F5 Dave
Well the wife is considerably pregnant & I do sleep in the same bed. . . do you think I could have caught it from her?
I believe the name Chinese Goosberries was purely just that. Had little to do with the country itself. Could be wrong though.

Ha1 Just did a little research. you are in fact correct. But they sold their plants and seeds to ....wait for it.....USA. NZ then got them from USA in 1906 and the rest is history. USA gave up cause they didn't like them too much apparently (go figure, probably didn't have any sauce on them) so stopped growing them in the early 1900's. they did in fact come from China but were a lot smaller and a delicacy at the time. They have now been developed into the large fruit they are today and yep....sold back to China.
Well done young man!
