the most surprising thing about wild american black currants, Ribes americanum, is how good they taste. If you've tried Crandall currant, a selection of another species it has a similar flavour with no astringency, they're very tasty. and they're native, grown from seed, I was lucky enough to find a local patch of them, you can help ID the plant by the small yellow glands under the leaves. I want to plant them all over our property. Here i'm making plugs with small clusters, excited to get these growing. #nativeplants
