kudrick, This is Ribes red flowering currant, King Edward VII. Sorry, no picture of the blooms. They were magnificant. The shrub was completely covered in deep fuschia, brilliant neon pink blooms. It was put in Spring 2007. It is planted in a windy spot facing south amidst the roots of a 100' spruce. It has filled out & grown in height dynamically. It was a single twig about 2' tall when planted. Last week 4 others joined this as underplantings along my tree line. I purchased them from Forest Farm.
