Size:Big Pack – Elderberry American elder, or elderberry, is a bushy, multi-
stemmed, wide spreading shrub or small tree with deciduous compound leaves. It
typically grows 10-15 feet tall with a similar spread. The leaves of the
American elder are opposite, pinnately compound (featherlike), and up to a
foot long. Large, terminal, flat-topped clusters of fragrant, tiny star shaped
white flowers arranged in showy sprays up to 10 inches across appear in
spring. The flowers are followed by clusters of shiny dark purple to black,
berry-like fruits (drupes) in late summer to fall. Fruit may be used to make
preserves, jellies, pies and wine. Fruit is also attractive to wildlife. In
the fall, elderberries put on a colorful display of yellows, oranges and reds.
