Currants do seem the best choice. I don't know of their life expectancy 
though, or root spread

My response:   The life expectancy of black currant plants in this country is about 
20 plus years, if managed well. Maybe even more. The roots are close to the surface and, in time, will spread to about 8 feet in diameter but most often are about 6 feet. Plants can be pulled with little effort.
