Description
Ribes aureum (Golden currant)
Showy Yellow Flowers
This eastern Washington native shrub blooms early in spring. Birds and most humans like the fruit. It does well in a variety of soil types but needs lots of space as it can grow to 9 feet tall and sends up multiple shoots from the roots. Photo by Carol Coker
