<div> </div>
<div><font>When I was a child I was told the cape gooseberry
is so called because it wears a cape. The fruit is enclosed in a "cape"
which is folded back when it is eaten fresh off the bush. I<font>t comes up all on its own as a pioneer plant (weed) on
disturbed soils where the conditions are suitable. I am picking
enough for a good double portion of gooseberry fool every few days and have been
doing so for months . The bush just came up in a flower border and we
left it. I have seen punnets of them in the fruit sections of the
supermarkets, so conclude it is grown commercially</font></font></div>
<div> </div>
<div><font>The Afrikaans is "appelliefie" with older
variants "appelliepie, appelde(r)liefde, appieliefie" </font></div>
<div> </div>
<div><font>We just call it "Stachelbeere" because of the
English word, although </font><font>we know the real
"Stachelbeere".. My slightly older Woordeboek van die Afrikaanse
Taal mentions under "appelliefie" that the Ribes grossularia from
Europe, N. Africa and S.W. Asia is also called "pampelmoesie" or
"pompelmoesie" which is the diminutive form of the name I know a grapefruit
under. I think in Hawaii it is a poa berry
(spelling?) </font></div>
