Ribes glandulosum, also known as the skunk currant, is a flowering plant native to North America. It is commonly found in Canada and parts of the United States, including Alaska, the Great Lakes region, the Appalachian Mountains, and the Northeast. This deciduous shrub can grow up to 0.5 meters tall and wide, with palmately lobed leaves and clusters of pink flowers. Its red, egg-shaped fruits are sometimes edible. In the United States, it is listed as endangered in Connecticut and New Jersey, and is considered a noxious weed in Michigan. The plant has also been used by indigenous peoples for medicinal and culinary purposes, such as treating back pain and preventing clotting after birth.
