First #flowering #WildFloweringRedCurrant #plant that I've seen in the #wild - this #Spring 😊 I really like this #NativePlant & plan to get cuttings from a friend who grows them, so I can propagate & grow them in my #food garden.
An important #EdiblePlant for #Indigenous #CoastSalish #FirstNations & they've been using it for generations.
It's in the #gooseberry family.
