Blue Elderberry

Blue Elderberry is tough, easy to grow, and grows vigorously. It can grow from a 1 gallon container to a 15 foot tree in 3 years if happy. It likes part shade or sun, and will tolerate full shade. It can handle permanently moist soil near stream sides, and will thrive next to or in regularly irrigated areas but grows bushy in dry soil for a more ornamental appearance.
