A gooseberry growing 6 ft high, found in the Mogollon Mountains of New Mexico and in Arizona, often in pine-woods, an association from which it derives its name; introduced in 1902. It has the typically shaped leaf of the gooseberries, glabrous, blunt-toothed, and with long, slender stalks. The young shoots are quite glabrous; the spines solitary, in pairs, or in threes, rich brown, stout, slightly curved. Flowers solitary, orange-yellow, hairy outside; the sepals much reflexed, showing the erect petals. Fruits black-purple, globose, 1⁄2 in. in diameter, with numerous bristles. Although this species has some of the most brilliantly coloured blossoms among gooseberries, they are short-stalked and solitary (or very rarely in pairs) at each joint, and make no great display. They appear in May, when the leaves are one-third grown.
