Loved your garden! Did you mention 2 varieties of elderberry? I have heard they need to be cross pollinated. Kiwis are incredible!

I planted some in full sun with the idea that I'd keep an eye on them and knowing that they don't transplant well. They are some of my biggest trees and I never saw any kind of trauma to them. I think that that is an old wives' tale because the send runners out and would be in the shade of their elders. Maybe in Florida they might need shade cloth or something, but I have had no need here in zone 5. Also, keep the one that you think is dead. Being they spend their first few years building a strong root system, it just might send out new leaves. They are late to leaf out anyway. My tenant was being helpful and volunteered to weed wack. He amputated one "tree" and totally girdled the other with the weed wacker. They are still struggling a few years later, but they are alive. I put it down to the root system. I'm wondering if some manure wouldn't be a good idea to attract flies for pollination.

Try planting paw paws near the black walnut. It’s a little known fact that they are a rare exception to the black walnut poison and actually grow bigger in relationship with them! But they do also like water and good drainage, so consider that too.

You can harvest the flowers of elderberries too. So if you have two trees you can harvest the flowers of one every other yeear so you shift between them to get berries from one and flowers from one you can still get the medicinal benefits from it. You can make surup from them for example to use as cough medicine either with honey or birch sap if you don't want to use sugar :)

Just harvested some of mine. They grow better every year. Mine are two years old. I harvested all of the larger tubers last year and only left the tiny round pieces in. This year I"ve gotten 3-5 lbs off each plant of really large tubers. I will be harvesting the 13 plants left soon and hope to store them in buckets with soil for the winter.

That sounds like a good plan for storage. I'm glad to hear that your production has been good and increasing. This year we finally dug enough up for a meal to see how ours tasted compared to others we had receive in the past. They were great! Next year we will do a large harvest and replanting, they will have had three years to mature and spread. I'm looking forward to seeing the results and hope to have something similar to your result!

They are a great plant to have around for so many reasons! They are very beautiful, they are so green that their leaves almost look waxy in the spring and in the fall their colour is very nice too! They attract many species of birds to the yard, taste great (if you get to eat any) and they will eventually provide shade as they generally grow into a full sized tree! Great choice, it always feels good to give back to nature and plant something native!

We were mis-sold by the ex owners. They burnt the Knotweed down. I've turned the negative into a powerful positive. American Herbalist Nana'z Naturalz is now making organic Japanese Knotweed Soaps from my recipe. Knotweed has been used in Cosmetics for years, anti-ageing. Resveratrol. I've cured my Asthma thanks to this plant and organic fruit and veg. It gets rid of Phlegm. I love this plant, and find it easy to control. In Europe that are making Japanese Knotweed paper, which saves our trees. And it could create green plant electricity. Not to mention it is a tea ... Itadori. Also it won a Bamboo Honey award in the USA. So the bees love it. And it is a food. I love it.

We have begun consuming it, our bees do make use of it too. I understand the health benefits and we all have to make the best of every situation, but our patch it's monstrously large. It must be approximately 20'x40' for sure and I have been attacking three satalite colonies for three years that are almost gone. I haven't even attempted to control the large patch yet this year. I wouldn't mind a 4'x8' contained box, maybe at some point we will be there. I'm glad you have been able to make use of all that grows on your property!

I was thinking about this question overnight and I suppose that if the plant was already under a significant amount of stress that it may drop the fruiting portions in summer. They require a lot of water, so if it was suffering through a drought, I suppose it's possible.
