‘Marge’ is a hybrid between the American Sambucus canadensis and the European Sambucus nigra which gives us an elderberry plant with all the characteristics of the European varieties but free from the diseases that plague so many. The berries are larger than the American varieties and ‘Marge’ is also self-pollinating so only one plant is necessary for fruit production. Flowers form on last year’s woody growth, so fruit will form the second year after planting. The berries contain antioxidants and flavinoids considered to be antiviral with immune-building benefits. Elderberry syrup is sold to treat colds, coughs and other upper respiratory ailments. Elderberries can be made into jam, jelly, wine, juice, syrup or pies.

Jess I tried to keep this alive for 3 months, it’s finally dead dead. Sad, but i will just have to buy another one!
We’re sorry to hear that your plant ultimately didn’t make it, especially after you cared for it for three months. While our 60-day guarantee period has passed, we’d still be happy to have our Customer Service team take a look and see if there’s anything we can do to assist. Please reach out to us with your order information, and we’ll be glad to help.

Adam Stephenson Great plant! The little healthy bugger was happy to get out of its box after getting routed the extra long way due to the world cup, fires, floods, and everything else appearing between it, and its destination! It is already taking off!

Resident_Theic Logee's did a fantastic job shipping this 'Marge' Elderberry. It arrived healthy, hardy, and ready to grow. I love that this pure European variety maintains a neat, upright, clump-forming habit and does not send out aggressive underground runners like American varieties do. It is highly resilient, beautifully behaved, and perfect for smaller or structured garden spaces. Additionally, you will not strictly require a second elderberry to produce fruit, as the 'Marge' variety is wonderfully self-pollinating. Highly recommended!
