Is there any difference anyone has noticed between R. Odoratum and R.
Aureum? I've seen the names used largely interchangably.

Very interesting, Hal.

me, 'Crandall' does reasonably well, but gets defoliated by mid to late
summer.
Due to the heat, you mean? Or insects?

'Crandall' flowers, the fruits were 2-4 times larger.

I planted six 'Crandall' currants last summer, but I also planted one
seedling clove currant, just in case cross-pollination would help. It
sounds like that was a good idea. Presumably one seedling currant would
be enough? They're all in the same area. Hmm,... but it sounds like your
second clove currant didn't bloom at the same time as the 'Crandall'?
And could you explain how you prune your Ribes odoratum?
Thanks,
