Plant Description
The Sambucus nigra, commonly known as the Sambucus nigra European elder or Sambucus nigra black elderberry, is a striking deciduous Sambucus nigra shrub or small Sambucus nigra tree native to Europe and parts of North America. This wild species is celebrated for its dense clusters of small, fragrant white flowers that bloom in late spring, giving way to abundant, deep purple to black Sambucus nigra berry clusters in late summer. The glossy, pinnate leaves provide a lush backdrop, enhancing its ornamental appeal in naturalistic landscapes. Known for its Sambucus nigra medicinal properties, this elder is steeped in traditional uses while adding ecological value by attracting pollinators and birds. Its versatility and charming appearance make it a prized specimen for those seeking a native, wildlife-friendly addition to gardens or natural areas.
