ELDERBERRY – MARGE

ELDERBERRY – MARGE
Hybrid between the American Sambucus canadensis and the European
Sambucus nigra which gives us an
elderberry 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. Original plant was an open pollinated
seedling of “Haschberg”; Marge is considered to be Sambucus nigra,
though the male parent is unknown. Flowers form on last year’s woody
growth, so fruit will form the second year after planting.
Hybrid between the American Sambucus canadensis and the European Sambucus nigra, large berries, self-pollinating. Zones 4-8
