Wax currant, Ribes cereum - does it grow in zone 3

Oak Summit Nursery · Southern Manitoba

Wax currant, Ribes cereum - does it grow in zone 3? there’s a few observations on inat in northern montanaz Google the cold hardiness zone and the results are not reliable, often variable. I’ll know for sure after a couple of winters, but if anyone else living somewhere cold is growing less common Ribes let me know if this one is cold hardy. Red flowering currant is another one I’m trying, cultivar is twisp river.
