Red Currants

Just some experimental red currants. Sadly I find red currants too sour myself, but they are very very pretty.

Ribes sanguineum (red flowering currant)

Flowering red currant is another plant native to the west coast of North America. Although it's berries are sometimes described as 'insipid', they were eaten fresh and dried as fruit leather by indigenous people in the Pacific Northwest. Red currants are loaded with vitamin C.
