Ribes sanguineum glutinosum Cultivation | Propagation | General Uses Cultivation Notes: Easily grown in a moisture retentive but well-drained loamy soil of at least moderate quality[11, 200]. Grows well in heavy clay soils. Succeeds in full sun, it is also quite tolerant of shade though it does not fruit so well in such a position[11]. Tolerates maritime exposure[49]. Hardy to about -20°c[200]. There is some confusion over the correct name for this species, it is considered to be a species in its own right by some authorities (R. glutinosum. Benth.) whilst others see it as a sub-species of R. sanguineum[11, 200]. A very ornamental plant[1]. A disease-resistant plant, it is being used in blackcurrant breeding programmes[119]. Plants can harbour a stage of white pine blister rust, so should not be grown in the vicinity of pine trees[155]. Plants in this genus are notably susceptible to honey fungus[200].
