S05. 2022- Elderberry, Sambucus nigra ‘Black Lace’

Price: $17.00          Size - 1 Gallon pot

This stylish shrub produces intense purple black foliage. Its leaves are finely cut like lace, giving it a look similar to that of a Japanese maple. Creamy pink flowers bloom in spring and are followed by blackish red berries in the fall. Berries are edible and can be harvested for making elderberry wine or jam. If left on the plant, berries will also attract birds and other wildlife. If this shrub looks familiar to you, this is the same elderberry shrub that graces our front walkway!

Shrub, 6-8’H, 6-8’W, Sun, Partial Sun
