The Elderberry shrub is a medium-sized shrub with opposite compound leaves and clusters of tiny, creamy-white or pale pink flowers, followed by dark purple-black berries arranged in umbrella-like clusters. It is a versatile and beneficial plant used in landscaping. This deciduous shrub offers many advantages with its attractive foliage, beautiful blooms, and fruits.
Add Beauty to Your Yard With This Shrub
Deciduous elderberry bushes can range in size from little trees to shrubs with several trunks. One type has small white blooms with five lobes, five stamens, and a tri-style ovary. Another type is yellowish-white and has five flattened petals. They thrive in partially shaded, damp places like meadows, marshes, forest borders, ditches, thickets, and floodplains. Typically, the most fertile canes are those that have developed lateral branches by the second year. After the fourth year of growth, you can trim off the older canes since they become much less productive.
Increase Pollination With It
They are great pollinator magnets due to the abundance of nectar in their huge, flat, shallow blossoms. Moths, beetles, flies, butterflies, and beetles are just some of the pollination insects that visit these blooms. They provide nectar and pollen for bees continuously throughout the growing season. When planted in clusters around an orchard, they will attract more pollinators. Even though they produce fruit on their own, they often experience an increase in yield when cross-pollination occurs.
Create Privacy for Your Yard With It
Because of their bushy growth and ability to produce new branches every year from the base, they are excellent for screening off unwanted views. Furthermore, they are capable of aggregating into thick masses, which makes them perfect for creating natural landscapes. They can also provide wind protection with their thick foliage. Planting them along driveways or fence rows is an excellent way to enjoy the seclusion they provide.
Add Wildlife Nutrition With TN Nursery
They provide unparalleled natural habitats and food sources. Their aromatic blossoms encourage pollinators like bees and butterflies to visit the garden, which is good for biodiversity. They are an important part of a healthy ecosystem since they provide a source for birds and small animals like moose, foxes, bears, mice, and deer.

Elderberry Bush 3’-4’
Packaging was really great. Roots were wrapped, and kept moist during shipping. Had new leaves already starting. Can’t wait to see how much they grow this first year.
