'''Miccosukee gooseberry''' (''Ribes echinellum'') is a rare [[shrub]] which has only three known populations. The [[Florida]] population was discovered first, in [[1924]] at [[Lake Miccosukee]]. The [[South Carolina]] populations were found in [[1957]] and [[1981]], and the first is protected at [[Steven's Creek Heritage Preserve]]. This species is cultivated in a few places outside its native areas, as far south as [[Hudson, Florida]][http://www.afnn.org/search_afnn_company_plant_list.asp?rl=50&rs=350&company_id=71], but does not reproduce. It is most abundant in the shade of [[deciduous trees]] on moist but well-drained soils with [[soil pH|pH]] of 6.7 to 7.4.[http://fwie.fw.vt.edu/WWW/esis/lists/e704018.htm]
