Be sure to click on the pictures for more detailed views. If you want more technical information, the internet's the limit. I have put a few sites of interest in the side bar. Entries will be revised if and when I take a better picture or find more, interesting information.
Thanks so much for the time you put into this blog. I am also in the Cariboo and am finding your photos and detailed notes very useful. The photos in Plants of Northern BC just aren't enough for me to be sure at times . . . I agree wholeheartedly with your comments on meandering. I'm heading out for a meander right now!
In my cruising for Rubus arcticus I fell across another site which led me to your Ribes photos. It's nice to see others give the berry listed as "inedible" in the wild berry books a kudo! We have R. hudsonianum and R. sanguineum in our 'yard' here on the mountain in south central Alaska. Makes the best jellies and liquers - no vodka or Everclear, please!! Cassis and Solbaerom with brandy and white rum base.
Good to see you follow up the meanders with a good mystery novel, too!

...beautiful photos of this berry. I wanted to grow some for the birds...they are supposed to love them!
Amazing photos, Eileen! Great site - I'm adding it to my list.
Interesting to compare your natives with ours :-)
