| Plant Name: Ribes sanguineum 'Claremont'
Plant Description: This beautiful early spring-flowering California Native shrub boasts spectacular hanging clusters of vibrant white and pink blossoms that will brighten any dark drizzly day.
Full sun on the coast and shade inland with good drainage and semi-regular water to establish for the first few years. Apple green aromatic foliage whisps my mind quickly to a trail hiking through sun to semi-shady Chapparal to Oak Woodland / riparian ecotonal transitions. An ornamental Native worth planting as a seasonal structural bone in the garden. Compliment with groundcovers such as Yerba Buena, Coral Bells, CA Fescue, Monterey Carpet or Pacific Mist Manzanita. |
