Ribes
Ribes (family Grossulariaceae) A genus of shrubs with simple, alternate, usually
palmately lobed leaves, and flowers in
racemes. These are regular, with 4 or 5
sepals,
petals, and
stamens, and an
inferior ovary of 2
carpels which forms a
berry on top, of which the
calyx persists. Many species are grown for their edible fruits (e.g.
R. rubrum, redcurrant;
R. nigrum, blackcurrant; and
R. uva-crispa, gooseberry), or for their ornamental flowers. There are about 150 species, occurring in the northern temperate zone, and on the mountains of Central and S. America.
