Thanks, Carmelita ji, for pointing out.
This is a google issue, which they have yet to resolve.

Yes. Look at Ribes.
R. sanguineum aka Red Flowering Currant. 

https://www.backyardnature.net/n/w/currant.htm

The plant is native; this link says that the natural range is from Southern California up to Alaska.
https://namethatplant.wordpress.com/tag/ribes-sanguineum/

This link explains how the corolla tube remains attached to the fruit as well as the coating on the fruit. https://www.backyardnature.net/n/w/currant.htm

This link calls it the Winter Currant. It's a good choice where water is scarce or regulated.https://public.wsu.edu/~lohr/wcl/shrubs/ribessan/rsanguineum.html

The plant grows wild but cultivars are available.  
R. sanguineum 'White Icicle' is a white flowering form.
'Elk River Red' and 'King Edward VII' have red blooms.

This link shows several cultivars and, judging from all the photos, this plant is grown more for the blooms than for the fruit which is not edible for humans.

Hope this helps.
Thank you.

Please check Ribes sanguineum glutinosum. A California native semi-deciduous shrub.
