*RETAIL - Ribes aureum ssp. gracillimum

Shared with us by plantsman Nevin Smith, this deciduous, western native shrub, to about 4-6 ft tall and wide, has gray-tinted, rounded, gooseberry-like leaves, and in late winter to spring, small sprays of pretty yellow flowers that add red tints with age followed by yellow to pale red fruit that is edible and tasty, if somewhat seedy. Monarchs and bees love the flowers; birds love the fruit. Sun for best appearance or part shade. Has performed well in the garden even with long periods of summer drought but doesn't seem to mind a little extra moisture here and there. Frost hardy to at least -10F, USDA zone 6, and possibly colder.
