iphone + dusk = grainy photos....buuuut, in any case, The elderberry patch I planted last spring seems fairly happy and is ready to bloom soon. I have Johns and Adams varieties as well as some wild elderberry plants. My plan for the elderberries is to make a healing syrup for winter ailments, and of course leave a few for the birds (or maybe they'll leave a few for me).

| About to flower |
Of course when I planted my elderberries I had a bit of a mix up with labeling, so I know I have different varieties but as far as who is who, I haven't a clue.
On your website here the pictures don't look grainy, they are clear and lovely.
