Elderberry is a medium-large, semi-wood species native to Nebraska. It is primarily used in wildlife plantings for summer food. The dark purple berries are formed on umbrella- like heads and ripen during mid- to late summer. The berries make excellent jelly and syrups. Elderberry is susceptible to some winter dieback in the western part of the state.
