WYLDEWOOD ELDERBERRY

Sambuscus canadensis

This is a variety of Elderberry that is found growing wild in Brush Hills, Oklahoma. The harvest season is two and three weeks later than other major cultivars. Wyldewood has high vigor. When the plants are grown in warmer climates or have a longer growing season, the plants can be mowed to the ground after dormancy as a method of pruning. The new primocane stems will yield fruits in the following year. Plants are productive with large cymes of fruit. Hardiness Zones 3-8.

Grow Guide

PLANT USES: Elderberry preserves or juices are made from the fruits. The plant is considered a native wetland plant and is used for rejuvenation projects. One specimen plant will provide enough fruit for a family. The unopened flower buds are used as a substitute for capers. The roots and root bark, leaves, and flowers have medicinal qualities. The fruits offer nutritious fruits for wildlife and the plant's large canopy of branches and foliage offers protection for wildlife.
WATER REQUIREMENTS: Apply water weekly for the first 6 to 8 weeks until the plant is established. The plants' vigorous root system will find water. In sandy soils apply water as needed during a dry spell. The plants are found in their native habitat near wetland areas so they can survive in high moisture areas.
