At elderberry sprawling landscape shape of the crown, so it is hardly suitable for a regular garden
Elderberry can be grown as an ornamental plant. For this, a strong pruning is carried out annually - it stimulates the growth of young shoots, the leaves on which are larger and brighter than on the old ones.
Pruning can be done in two ways. The first is to plant a bush on a stump every year (in this case, it will spread faster in breadth). The second is to prune on a stump every 3 years, in the intervals between them, cutting off only last year's growths by 1-2 pairs of buds and removing the shoots at the base of the bush.
Conditions for growing elderberry

Elderberry application free growing hedge, tapeworm, mixborder
seasonal decoration the entire growing season - shoots, leaves; June-July - cream or pinkish flowers; July-September - large fruits
If a golden shrub calls for a composition, it's a good idea to plant the black elderberry "Aurea" - a very affordable and popular tall, fast-growing shrub. And look at the red elderberry (Sambucus racemosa).
On sale there are cultivars "Plumosa Aurea", Goldenlocks "and" Sutherland Gold ". Red elderberry can be shaped by a haircut in the form of a tree similar to palmate maple, and grown in a Japanese garden - you get a wonderful blende-stylization I.
Your choice of purple-leaved and variegated shrubs can be limited to the forms and varieties of black elderberry (S. nigra). The winter hardiness of varieties with purple foliage is slightly less than that of the original species, but the plant has the ability to recover quickly.

What elderberry looks like, look at the photos below and admire its unique beauty:This typical example of the honeysuckle family is an extremely attractive plant, fanned with unusual beliefs. Healers consider it a talisman against evil spirits, an improvised material for creating medicines. What elderberry looks like, every summer resident, villager, and even an inhabitant of a metropolis who is far from gardening, probably knows. There is a whole palette of varieties and types of elderberry, about 40 of them are known. The characteristic aroma of foliage repels annoying insects (for example, flies), rodents and other pests. Bushes are often planted in the area of cesspools and compost pits, street toilets, and manure heaps. In addition to the ubiquitous red and black elderberry, other varieties of this plant are also cultivated, for example:
Canadian
blue
Siberian
grassy
Simbold
How beautiful different types and varieties of elder look in all kinds of territories, evaluate in the photo:Red, as well as grassy elder - plants are inedible, they contain cyanoglycosides. Black elderberry, on the contrary, is known for its healing qualities. Sometimes it is not easy to distinguish the poisonous berries of the scarlet elderberry from the medicinal fruits of the black one. If there is no absolute certainty about which plant is in front of your eyes, you should not take risks. Photos of black and red elderberries are offered below, view them to see the important differences:
Most varieties of elderberry are quite suitable for the Moscow region, they can be planted even in the North-West. If you provide the plant with reliable insulation for the winter, then it will not suffer from severe frosts. Decorative varieties are cultivated for the purpose of decorating household plots, summer cottages, gardens, and park areas. Elderberry in landscape design is in great demand, because the deciduous mass and flowers of this plant are unusually beautiful, they can have a variety of colors and shapes.
How to propagate elderberry cuttings and other methods
Elderberry is bred by cuttings, sowing seeds, dividing bushes or forming layering. Propagation of elderberry by cuttings is a convenient and most famous method. Cuttings are used both lignified and young. They must contain at least 3 internodes, several top sheets. The material is harvested in June-July. Cuttings cut from an adult plant (10-12 cm) are placed in a sand-peat mixture, covered with a jar on top. It is advisable to treat that part of the stem that will be in contact with the ground with a root former before planting - this composition will speed up the rooting process at times. Requires regular watering. In autumn, seedlings are sent to open ground. Seeds are harvested around the end of October, sowing is carried out immediately or in the spring. If the procedure is planned for the spring period, then it is necessary to prepare the seeds properly:- they are pre-soaked - for 3-6 days;
- water is changed daily;
- then the seeds are mixed with wet sand, placed in an airtight container, put in the refrigerator for 50-60 days.
The key features of this elderberry planting and care method are shown in the photo - view them to make all the steps correctly:
How to propagate elderberry in order to achieve almost 100% survival rate of a young plant? The best option is the formation of layering, which is added dropwise from an adult shrub in autumn or spring. A branch of a 2-3-year-old plant is bent down, placed in a trench dug the day before. Compost is added to the bottom of the groove. The shoots are securely fixed with a bracket made of metal, they are dug in well, leaving the top of the branch above the ground (it is cut off by 10 cm after planting). The plant needs frequent watering, especially until it is established. The division of the root system is performed in the fall. A large, perennial bush is dug up, divided into equal sections. To do this, you need a saw or a sharp ax. Places of cuts / cuts are coated with ash, immediately planted in prepared trenches or containers (if spring planting is planned).
How to plant an elder
To get a strong, beautiful plant, you need to know how to plant elderberry correctly. The shrub is not particularly demanding on the soil on which it grows, however, preference should be given to loam, sod-podzolic soil with a pH of 6.0-6.5. Excessive acidity of the soil is neutralized by liming (dolomite flour is added). The plant can tolerate excessive humidity and moderate shade, but it definitely cannot withstand drought - it grows poorly, loses its decorative effect, and can even die. This must be taken into account when choosing a landing site and with further care. It is recommended to focus on the open, sunny, eastern site of the site. A well-groomed elderberry bush planted in a suitable place looks very chic, look at the photo:Shrubs are planted in autumn or spring, depending on the method of reproduction. In any case, a hole is dug in advance (a month before the intended landing). The depth of the pit is 0.8 m and 0.5 m is its circumference. The earth from the upper layers of the ditch is thrown in one direction, from the deeper layers - in the other. A nutrient “cushion” is placed at the bottom of the trench, consisting of the following components:
- soil excavated from the surface layers;
- 7 kg of high-quality humus;
- 50 gr. phosphates;
- 30 gr. potash fertilizer.
Although the plant is unpretentious, it still needs to be given some attention, otherwise the shrub will not be able to fulfill its decorative functions. The nature and scope of care activities depends on the season:
- Spring. In March, there is a risk that the plant will suffer from temperature changes, when during the day the bark is strongly heated by the sun's rays, and at night it cools rapidly. To prevent damage, all forks are painted over with lime mortar. If there are cracks or injuries inflicted by rodents on the trunk, then all such “wounds” should be washed with a solution of potassium permanganate, covered with garden pitch. On a fine, non-cold day, they start pruning. Dried, unhealthy, frostbitten shoots are subject to liquidation. With the help of a pruner, the crown is given a neat look. Cuts and cuts are treated with Nitrafen or Bordeaux liquid.
- Summer. After flowering, the elderberry is sprayed with special preparations to prevent damage by harmful insects, powdery mildew. The soil in the trunk area is loosened, kept moist. In bushes frostbitten during the winter period, the growth of basal shoots is activated. They are destroyed until they "overtake" the elder bush itself.
- Autumn. Autumn care involves watering, harvesting, preparing for winter. In September, healing berries ripen at the black elderberry, they are harvested and subjected to appropriate processing. After that, sanitary pruning is performed. When the plant sheds foliage, it is treated with fungicides, insecticides. At the end of the month, they dig up the soil around the trunk, insulate the near-stem area with peat, humus or straw. Sometimes pre-fertilize.
- Winter. To prevent root frostbite, snow is periodically piled around the trunks. Also make sure that the insulation mulch does not collapse.
Varieties of all types of elderberry need a sufficient amount of water: black, red, Canadian and others. It is possible to reduce the frequency of watering or even eliminate them only in rainy summers and when the near-stem space is mulched. Mulch (compost, straw, rotted manure) slows down the rate of evaporation of moisture from the soil. In a particularly hot time, 10 liters of water are poured under each bush, 1 time / week.

Type of red elderberry: photo and description of varieties
Red elderberry ( Sambucus racemosa) - a small deciduous tree begins its pedigree from the mountain slopes of Western Europe. Its distinctive feature is a specific smell and beautiful, but inedible small red fruits. Externally, the plant becomes especially attractive just at the time of fruiting. The instance is quite shade-tolerant, but looks more impressive in good lighting conditions. The red elderberry has very interesting, decorative varieties that successfully tolerate formative pruning, adverse weather conditions:Nana. Dwarf, compact form. It has a nice crown of a golden hue, notches along the edges of the sheets. The flowers are green-yellow, the berries are bright scarlet.
Southland Gold. It differs from Nana in a more pronounced dissection of the border of the sheets. The variety is resistant to sunlight.
Elderberry is a wonderful plant that is increasingly found on the plots of domestic gardeners. She pleases with her not only truly decorative properties, but also with a lot of useful qualities that make her an excellent option for creating garden compositions.
Despite the fact that the elderberry genus has about 40 plant species, not all of them are cultivated. And we will talk about the most common types and varieties below.
Cultivated plant species and their varieties
This type of elder, also often referred to as red, is the most common and most common.
Initially, Western Europe was considered the birthplace of the plant, and it was from there that it was brought to Russia at the end of the distant 16th century. In our conditions, the elder liked it, and it naturalized perfectly here.
This type of plant has a 3-meter height and a very lush, rounded crown. It has unpaired leaves of 3-7 petals, inflorescences are located mainly in the upper part of the bush, and from below it is bare. When the leaves open in spring, they are purple-purple, while the young shoots are purple-violet. Older trees have grayish-brown bark, on which longitudinal wrinkles are visible. Together with the leaves on the shrub, rounded yellowish-white inflorescences are also formed. The flowers contain a lot of nectar, because they are attractive to insects, and are honey-bearing. In July, bright red fruits appear, which, however, are poisonous, but with the right approach can be used for medicinal purposes. These berries are very fond of pecking birds, unwittingly contributing to the spread of elderberry. The smell of the plant repels pests and rodents, and allows you to save the garden from such unpleasant insects as aphids and caterpillars. It has been noted more than once that there are no flies and mosquitoes in rooms with elder branches.
Elderberry has been used in cultivation since 1596, and several ornamental varieties are currently known. The most beautiful of them is Plumosa Aurea, which has golden yellow leaves. The Sutherland Gold variety also has golden leaves, which is even reflected in its name, but they are less dissected, the color fades in strong sun, and therefore it is advisable to choose semi-shady areas for planting shrubs. A very powerful and beautiful split-leaved plant is Laciniata, Spectabilis has white flowers and Flavescens has yellow fruits. The Tenuifolia cultivar is known as a low shrub with weeping shoots.
This species is very similar to the red elderberry, but it also has its own distinctive features: bristly hairs on the leaves, axes of the inflorescence and stems. This variety grows in Siberia, in the Far East, although it is occasionally found even in the European part of Russia. In Moscow conditions, the plant reaches only a three-meter height, and begins to bear fruit from 2-3 years of age.
Elder Siebold
This variety is native to China, Japan and the Far East. Under natural conditions, it lives among bushes, in river valleys, while reaching eight meters in height. In Moscow, the height of the bush rarely exceeds 2.5 meters. The leaves of this species are complex, 6-20 in length and with a serrated edge.
Their color is yellowish-white, and they are collected in inflorescences. The fruits are red, small in size. This species prefers warmth. Cultivated since 1907.
Elder Kamchatka
This species, according to the name, is distributed in Kamchatka, mainly preferring fertile soils of deciduous forests. Under natural habitat conditions, the height of the bush is 4 m. In modern Moscow conditions, the bush survives and even reaches more than two meters in height. It has red fruits and white-cream inflorescences.
Elderberry fluffy
The homeland of the variety is the eastern part of North America, on the territory of which it is found in the undergrowth of mixed and coniferous forests. Plant height reaches 4-8 meters in nature, in Moscow - 2 meters. The leaves are 5-10 centimeters long, oval-oblong in shape.
The shrub begins to bloom from the age of three with yellowish-white flowers, small in size. The fruits of the plant are bright red, fiery color. The species has been known in culture since 1812. Has several ornamental cultivars such as Dissecta (with amazing deeply cut leaves); Leucocarpa (which has whitish fruits); Xanthocarpa (yellow-orange fruits).
The black elderberry, which has become widespread in Ukraine, Russia, Western Europe, North Africa and the Middle East, is distinguished by the greatest decorative effect and, in addition, edible fruits. This is a fairly tall shrub at 3.5 meters. Its leaves are large, pinnate, consisting of 5 petals with a slightly unpleasant odor. At the end of June, large white corymbose inflorescences appear. The flowers are whitish-cream in color, small in size and very fragrant.
The fruits are shiny black drupes, after ripening they can be eaten. They have a sweet and sour taste, are consumed raw and processed. It is worth remembering that the roots, leaves and bark of the plant are poisonous. Sometimes this variety does not bear fruit, but also!
Absolutely all varieties and forms of black elderberry are considered to be decorative. For example, the Aurea variety, which is a bush of 3 meters in height, has golden yellow leaves and begins to bloom from 6 years.
The variety Laciniata has a very beautiful, openwork crown, and Acutiloba has noticeably rugged leaves. Aureomarginata and Madonna varieties have leaves surrounded by a golden border, which makes them even more attractive and decorative. Shrub 1-2 meters tall with variegated leaves is a variety of Pulverulenta. It can even be noted an unusual marble pattern on the leaves, which is formed due to small strokes and dots. The Purpurea cultivar gets its name from its bright purple foliage. Guincho Purple looks especially gorgeous in autumn, when its dark purple leaves turn a fiery red. Gerda and Black Beauty are known for their delicate pink blooms and purple-crimson autumn leaf colors.
Quite pretty is the dwarf variety of black elder - Witches Broom. This bush reaches 20 centimeters in height, has dark green leaves, but there are no flowers on it.
In Holland, Denmark and Austria, special fruiting varieties were bred - Danau, Corsair, Hamburg and Sambu, which are distinguished by their non-shrinking berries. In the USA, breeders selected a separate variety - Adam Eldercerry, whose yield is about 7-10 kg of berries per bush.
Black elderberry berries are used to make jelly, juice, jelly, marshmallow, jam, puree, syrup. It is also often used as a tint for grape juice or wine. The inflorescences of the plant are sometimes added to cookies or to wine to give them the smell of nutmeg. Many dishes and drinks with the use of these berries are recommended for use in case of detection of cardiovascular and kidney diseases.
This species is quite interesting and, remarkably, it is well resistant to frost. At the same time, the variety has little difference from the black elderberry, except that it stands out for larger fruits, leaves and clusters of fruits. The historical homeland of the plant is North America, on the territory of which the bush develops up to 4 meters in height. In Moscow conditions, it grows up to 2-3 meters. The leaves of the Canadian elderberry consist of 7 petals. Flowers are collected in large inflorescences, reaching 25 cm in diameter. Flowering and fruiting begins at 3 years. The fruits are black in color, have a sweet and sour taste, and are also edible when ripe in September. Often also used to create jam or jam.
This species has been known since 1761 and has many decorative forms and varieties. These include Aurea with golden yellow leaves, as well as cherry-colored fruits; Chlorocarpa with amber, golden leaves and green fruits. The following American varieties are distinguished by especially large inflorescences and yields: Adams, Maxima, Victoria, Jones, York, Kent.
Elderberry blue
This type of plant also came from North America, but from more western areas. It is a tall shrub or small tree, sometimes reaching 15 in height. Prefers for growth the banks of rivers and streams. The leaves have 5-7 petals and an oblong-lanceolate shape, the inflorescences are white-yellow, the fruits are bluish-black. Known since 1850.
elderberry herbaceous
This species is often found in nature in the south of Russia, the Caucasus, Belarus and Ukraine. He loves the edges of forests, banks of streams, rivers, ravines. A distinctive feature of the species is the ground non-woody part of the plant, which dies off in winter. In the Moscow region, it also blooms, but the fruits almost never ripen to the end. It should be borne in mind that elderberries are poisonous because they contain a lot of acid.
The elder said to the aspen:
Why am I worse than a mountain ash neighbor?
They say that we are very similar
I'm hung with bunches too!
They say I'm beautiful too
But my fate is not happy!
A nursery rhyme about elder reflects the unfortunate fate of this unjustifiably forgotten plant. Today I will fix my eyes on her, on Elderberry. As a child, they always scared me with elderberry, they said that the berry is poisonous, do not touch it, you will be poisoned! Nobody thought about its decorative qualities in those days, so for us it is not some kind of decorative and exquisite plant that can take the main place in your flower bed. It grows mainly as an undergrowth in coniferous and deciduous forests, along roads, in wastelands. And you say, well, what's good about it? Let's figure it out together, is it really that simple?
