I’m in zone 9 central Texas I bought 9 cuttings wylder,ranch and Pocahontas put them straight into soil pots they grew leaves then they started dying 3 were planted in ground which looked great and healthy then our scorching sun and heat killed them now I’ve bought 5 which I bought potted and rooted that are about 10-12 in tall in solo cups I’m thinking of a partial shade area now just don’t know when to plant it’s September now I’d like them to establish roots but not sure if our winter months will kill them should I wait till springtime? I’m determined to have elderberries in my yard

[@deborahjoyvalentine6180]

I agree some afternoon shading in AZ, TX and other extreem heat locations

15:58 ❓What if I don't see birds eating my wild elderberry?

[@captivechains9033]

I'm trying (Organic Black Elderberry Powder) mixed with (Hot Water); drinking it in place of a cup of tea.

[@thewilsons9652]

36:14 ❓Do elderberries cross pollinate and change flavor? Like a mint plant?

[@thewilsons9652]

10:22 I have a wild grown elderberry. ❓How can I get it tested to see what kind it is? (To know if it's a good one to eat and for medicine)

[@dianajschroedl3099]

Do they get along with black walnut?

[@yoopermann7942]

can you graze sheep and chickens in a orchard of elder berrys? how far north will they thrive? i love and miss elder berry

[@christopherpatton416]

Yes, but only after harvest if you are selling to the public. They grow into Canada, but above the 45th parallel environmental factors come into play as to how much the plants will yield. Location and annual weather specifics have a more critical impact. They do grow in Canada, for example, but north of MN they do not yield berries very often, I have been told.

[@yoopermann7942]

@@christopherpatton416 that is what i was thinking, i`m in the UPPER PENINSULA of MICHIGAN, in USDA zone 4 300 + inches of snow and temps down to -40F. and a lot of wild life around. thank you guys for these informative videos!!

How do you keep 1 Pocahontas Elderberries from laying on the ground Because the stems are not strong enough to hold the huge amount of fairies they produce. Many of my stems broke early after blooming., Therefore I have produced lots more plants which are producing this year.

[@suerogers2931]

Terry thanks for answer my questions

[@dianajschroedl3099]

And hazelnuts.!

[@lindawhite6776]

I’ve always heard all of the elderberry is poisonous unless cooked. Do you have to take berries off stem and cook. Do you cut a two year old plant to the ground. Is the York , Adams, or bob gordon American varieties.

[@grampandrich7486]

Do deer eat these plants
