Flower Detail

Grossulariaceae ?

Locally called Rocky Mountain Currant. I don't know the official name. This shrub commonly grows around here; I just transplanted mine from the property I purchased. I love the currant relish I make from this. In spring green leaves with yellow flowers; in fall, redish foliage. Seen here next to Robinson crab apple.
