Little Red-flowering Currant


This is my first time carving this common native species. It was cut from a very vigorous plant next to a lawn we replaced on a landscaping job I was part of while down in Portland. Such jobs are great for finding spoon wood! This fine grained wood has a light speckling but is fairly plain otherwise. A humble shrub with beautiful flowers. Red-flowering currant.
