Pruning elderberry trees is not difficult!
Free-standing elderberry form shrubs up to 5m high. Renewal from the base decreases with age. Due to the apex promotion usually results in overgrowth.
Therefore, the upbringing as a meter trunk (tree) offers advantages. The additional effort required to build up the tree form and to remove base and trunk shoots in the first years of standing is compensated by the easier maintenance when the tree is older.
With a trunk length of 1m, the fruiting branches hang to the ground under their load and most pruning and harvesting can be done from the ground.
Vigorous elderberry trees annually form numerous, upright shoots with a length of 1.5 - 2m These form short side shoots in the following year, which bear fruit terminally. Due to the weight of the flowers and fruits, the branches lean outwards. Pruning is limited to removing the worn biennial branches after harvesting and leaving a certain number (5-20) of shoots as strong as possible, close to the base.
The black elder (Sambucus nigra) is a valued wild fruit, especially in Austria. Also because of its ingredients, such as a very high vitamin C content, it is also used in folk medicine.
Rudolf Novak selected at the Haschhof in Klosterneuburg the worldwide known and most common elderberry variety Haschberg.
