DESCRIPTION
Ribes sanguineum 'Ubric' produces pendant clusters of pure white flowers in elongated racemes, opening in early spring and illuminating the branches with a clean, luminous display. Rounded, softly lobed leaves emerge a fresh green with a lightly textured surface, forming a dense canopy as they expand. The flowers hang in loose, drooping trusses, their white tones attracting hummingbirds and early pollinators while the foliage develops into a full, leafy presence through the growing season.
Originating from the western North American species and selected from material collected near Vancouver Island, this cultivar reflects careful breeding for garden performance and early bloom. It is well suited to woodland borders, informal hedging, and wildlife gardens, where its early flowering period and nectar-rich blooms support seasonal activity and provide interest at the close of winter.
