This extremely upright elderberry selection makes for a unique focal point in any garden. Near-black foliage forms a striking fastigiate habit. Pink flowers in early summer contrast beautifully with the deep burgundy foliage. Dark berries attract birds in the fall. A great specimen for added interest and texture. Grow as a shrub or cut back like a perennial. Grows 6-8' tall with a spread of 3-4'. Hardy to Zone 4.
