Red Elderberry

Sambucus racemosa

Native shrub. Shade tolerant. White flowers in spring, red berries in early summer. Great food for bees and birds. And native bees use the branches as homes. Used medicinally and part of the Coast people’s diet, but some parts of the plant are toxic and berries require special preparation to be edible.

Grows 10 - 12' tall and wide. Sun or part shade – loves a woodland edge. Average to moist or seasonally wet soil.
