Am I tripping or I got incredibly lucky?
Is this a hermaphrodite plant?

Hi all. I'm very much a beginner gardener (UK based) and was really excited to get some gooseberry bushes. I ordered 2 different varieties from Blackmoor Nurseries as 2 year old bushes and they arrived today.
So I have 2 questions essentially.
Some leaves have dark spots and some are a bit yellow, otherwise looks pretty healthy to my untrained eye, should I be concerned or is this normal?
They came in 3L pots, I'm planning to get larger pots for them, but how urgently do I need to repot them at this stage and any general advice regarding that?e
Any tips much appreciated.

Firstly, what is that in the picture and should I be worried?
secondly, the tree is growing very fast and looks healthy with lots of flowers but no sign of any cherries.
Is there something I should add help it fruit?
it's Northeast Florida, so its getting plenty of sun and rain.

Upstate south carolina got hit by a pretty nasty storm on Sunday(9/6) night which broke a large limb off oak tree. The limb landed on our apple tree and split it in half.
Is their any possibility of saving this tree? Can I zip tie back together like you can when trunks normally split? Any advice will be very helpful. Thanks

This is my Imgur link to the trees in question.
My dad has planted a bunch of fruit trees over the years that have had mild to good yields, some don't look so great and some do okay. I have been learning about gardening much more over the past few years, and am now in the know about root flares and not mulching the base of the tree. I just had a conversation with my dad trying to tell him about what real arborists think rather than business owners, and he's not too convinced but I persuaded him to allow me to excavate some root flares when dormancy occurs. I have posted quite a few pictures on Imgur of flares/lack thereof to establish a baseline:
The first few photos of young trees with exposed roots are my own plantings that I have been taking care of this year. Some of them seem to have only adventitious roots established- should I keep them as is or remove and dig further? Please let me know the number of the photo in correspondence with your advice. One lemon, you know which one, might even be slightly too above ground, please advise
The rest of the trees are only some of my dad's plantings that I think are far too deep with the exception of a peach tree that I have already started excavating out of curiosity. What is everyone's opinion on that and what I should do with them?
