22 Sep 16, Mark (Canada - Zone 6b Temperate Warm Summer climate): I grew some Cape Gooseberry from seed I purchased from a store, and I am interested in saving my own seed for next spring. What is the best way to do that? Thank you, Mark Gregson

Will gooseberries grow for me in the Sacramento valley of California? Would they prefer sun or shade? Thank you!
