Description: Elderberry Black Live Plant - Varieties - Flavored Fruit You are purchasing a selection of American Black Elderberry (Sambucus canadensis) and European Black Elderberry (Sambucus nigra), offered as healthy, well-rooted plants, shipped in separate pots with soil. Elderberries are known for their rich, aromatic flavor and exceptional hardiness, often thriving without pest issues. For optimal pollination and fruit production, it's recommended to plant two different varieties. Elderberries are rich in flavonoids and vitamin C, earning recognition as a superfruit. However, all parts of the plant contain toxic alkaloids, so the berries must be cooked before consumption, making them safe for use in jams, syrups, pies, and wine. These plants also attract birds and butterflies, adding beauty and life to your garden. Each plant matures to a height of 6 to 12 feet and prefers full or partial sunlight. With proper pollination, mature plants can produce up to 30 pounds of fruit. When placing your order, feel free to specify the varieties you’d like in the "Special Instructions" section.
