Ribes prefer well drained soil in a sunny position. Growing Ribes odoratum in a semi-shaded spot may result in fewer flowers and berries. Plant Flowering Currant shrubs at the same depth as they were planted in their pots and incorporate lots of well rotted manure or garden compost into the soil when you backfill the planting hole. Water well to settle the soil.
Young plants will need regular watering throughout the growing season until they become fully established. Apply a mulch of well rotted manure or garden compost to the base of the plant in the Spring. Ribes are a low maintenance shrub requiring little pruning. Cut back stems to a healthy bud after flowering and take away a fifth of older stems to ground level.
