Listing is for 5 Seeds. Blue Elderberry is a vigorous shrub with compound leaves and a naturally spreading habit. It produces large, flat-topped clusters of small flowers followed by dense berry groupings later in the season.
This plant thrives in full sun to partial shade and appreciates soil that retains some moisture without becoming waterlogged. Pruning older stems helps maintain shape and encourages fresh growth from the base.
Blue Elderberry is often used in hedgerows and mixed plantings where height and seasonal change are desired. Its fast growth and broad canopy make it effective as a screen or backdrop plant.
