I have tried to grow Invicta for 3 years now. The plant looks healthy but no flowers, no fruit. I live in the Texas Hill Country Zone 8. Our soil is almost non existent and therefor I have everything planted in raised beds and the gooseberry is in a large container at the S/W side of our house. Is there anything I do wrong?
