Thick clusters of delicate white blossoms give way to plentiful purple-black berries that are perfect for homemade syrups, jams and wines. Even after the main shoot is ripe for picking, side shoots later produce even more of these antioxidant-rich berries for a plentiful extended growing season. Ideal for use as a hedge, focal point or mixed border, Pocahontas Elderberry has a strong tolerance for both drought and wet soils, making it easy to grow and maintain in different climates. A favorite of pollinators and birds, the elderberry fosters a vibrant ecosystem wherever it grows, and with deep roots in Native American history, it will honor a rich tradition that spans generations.
