      Maybe next season, but here's what to know: Ribes aureum will go completely summer dormant in most conditions. Expect this, it is completely normal. As long as stems remain flexible and scraping to look at the cambium reveals internal life (see our earlier videos in the series), you are most likely good.
      In my home garden, I have a number of Ribes aureum that get watered weekly along with my fruit trees, and they still go completely dormant.
      You will tend to see them in the wild in areas that accumulate moisture, and appreciate water in a garden, but can be remarkably low water demanding after establishment as well.
      Inland they can definitely take full sun, but especially thrive in north facing, part shade, or afternoon shade conditions.
      Depending on the weather in the spring or early summer, you can keep them in-leaf longer by giving them a bit more water if you want.
      As a plant that can take water more regularly, they are also great in areas that transition between more regularly watered landscapes and less irrigated native zones.
      With the cooler weather they should be springing back to life any time now!
