(var. Rafzvicta). Jumbo, bright red fruits grow on nearly thornless canes. Developed in Switzerland where gooseberries are very popular, Tixia allows for painless picking as the one year canes have few thorns, and those that remain, are relatively soft. Huge, elongated, bright red fruits are smooth and have a succulent 'sweet-tart' flavor. Fruits are delicious fresh and also make mouth-watering pies, jams and jellies. Fruit ripens in July. High yielding plants are mildew resistant. 2 yr. #1 bare root plants. Zones 3-7.
