    Hi and thanks for the reply. I clicked on Google search and there were clearer photos which looks like my plant! Any idea of the common name?

    @Silver surfer, when you look at all those photos on that page, they are all photo sharing sites but not botanical sites, none of the photos has the name Ribes coccinea, and no botanical site comes up on the web pages search. That's probably why HRobert had to ask about a common name - there isn't any web page at all that would say. If it's an old name, I'd have thought that pages would still come up.

    @HRobert, if you saw clearer photos that look like your plant, what name did they give it?
