About Ranch
Heavy loads of small black fruits follow large flower heads in late August. Found on an abandoned 1800s farmstead. Particularly cold-hardy and forgiving of non-fertile soils. Bob Gordon is a good pollenizer.
About Elderberry
Large, flat clusters of fragrant white blossoms in early summer, followed by glossy dark purple to black berries in drooping clusters in fall. Prune suckers as they appear to control spread. Elderberries are rich in fiber and antioxidants but must be picked ripe and cooked to avoid gastrointestinal distress. Good for jams, syrups, and wine. Do not eat the stems, leaves or roots. Not self-fruitful, needs a pollenizer. The species is a plant native to Minnesota.
