Description
A selection of the West Coast native pink flowering currant Ribes sanguineum var. glutinosum 'Claremont' (Flowering Currant) has larger, deeper pink hanging clusters of nectar-rich flowers in early to mid-spring. Pollinated by hummingbirds, it is an essential early season nectar source for them when migrating north. Plant it in compost enriched garden loam with shade from the afternoon sun. Taller growing that wide, this shrub is a great choice for small yards and patio gardens. The leaves exude a delightful fragrance, deterring deer. Introduced by Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden in California. Underplant 'Claremont' with Heuchera (Coral Bells), Aquilegia chrysantha (Golden Columbine) and Festuca x 'Siskiyou Blue (Festuca grass). Prune after flowering if desired.

This plant is doing great
"This plant is doing great and it has grown a ton since I got it. I am in zone 9 and I have it in partial shade and moist soil. The plant and I are very happy."
Disappointed
"Plant arrived quickly, no damage to shipping box but the plant itself had several broken branches. There was a considerable amount of loose soil in the bag, so it had clearly taken a tumble or two during shipment. There was no protection for the plant other than the plastic bag it was enclosed it. It's been two days now, and it is looking like it's not going to survive. Really wanted this one, but given the price, the tiny size, the lack of protection for potential shipping damage, I can't recommend it, and wouldn't risk trying to order again."
