- / per
This Elderberry is a valued native small-tree or large shrub, growing readily in North America and Britain. Berries are dark and plentiful. Spring flowers are also quite attractive, forming white masses.
Type: Large shrub or small tree
Height: 2-5 meters. Plants can be pruned to remain as a small shrub, or left to grow to a very small tree.
Location: Sun or part sun
Hardiness zones: 3-9
Bloom time: Spring, followed by berries in summer.
Seeds per packet: 10
Soak the seeds for 12-24 hours before planting. Sow just under the surface of the soil and water in. First keep them at room temperature for 60 days. This helps break the phytohormones which inhibit germination. Then cover them with plastic to retain moisture, and then place in a fridge for 150 days. Be sure they stay lightly moist. Then bring them to approximately 21C, 70F for germination.
Ornamental use only. These seeds and or plants are poisonous.
