First #flowering #WildFloweringRedCurrant #plant that I've seen in the #wild - this #Spring 😊 Love this #NativePlant & plan to get cuttings from a friend who grows them, to propagate & grow in #food garden.
Important #EdiblePlant for #Indigenous #CoastSalish #FirstNations & they've been using it for generations. In the #gooseberry family.
