I have a three year old ribes sanguineum which was well-established and very robust. About a month ago early June its leaves began to turn yellow one by one and wither. It is now half brown with dried leaves. It seems early for it to go dormant, and another ribes in my garden about 21/2 feet away is still green and growing. I wonder if I have given it too much water or not enough. I have put some new plants fairly close to it and perhaps overwatered the ribes while establishing the new plants. Any thoughts or experience? Do ribes tolerate water or are they very sensitive to too much? Help! It was the best-growing plant in my native garden!</p>
