SAMBUCUS NIG BLACK LACE
Grower Notes:

Sambucus nigra 'Eva' PPCBR2633 Proven Winners® Color Choice® Black Lace® is commonly referred to as Black Lace™ Purple Cut-Leaf Elderberry. This Proven Winners® Color Choice® selection features creamy pink flowers in spring that contrast well with its finely cut, lacy dark purple foliage providing an exotic look reminiscent of Japanese Maples. The small purple berries are edible and delicious, providing a tart flavor that can be harvested for making elderberry wine, pancakes and jam.

Black Lace™ Elderberry thrives in full sun in rich, fertile, evenly moist, well-drained soil. It can tolerate small periods of standing water, but drainage is best. Light pruning in winters adds to its vigor the following spring.
