Growing elderberry (Sambucus spp.) from cuttings is a simple and effective way to establish these productive shrubs. With the right care, they will grow quickly and provide abundant fruit.

Planting the Cuttings

  1. Plant in Soil or Water
    • Soil Method: Plant cuttings 2-3 inches deep in a pot or directly in the garden with moist, well-draining soil.
    • Water Method: Place cuttings in a jar with 2-3 inches of water, changing it every few days until roots develop (then transplant to soil).
  2. Keep Moist – Ensure the soil stays evenly moist but not waterlogged.
  3. Provide Indirect Light – Place in a partially shaded location until roots establish (4-8 weeks).

Transplanting & Growing Elderberries

  1. Choose a Planting Site – Elderberries thrive in full sun to partial shade with moist, well-drained soil rich in organic matter.
  2. Spacing – Plant cuttings 6-10 feet apart, as elderberries grow into large shrubs.
  3. Water Regularly – Keep soil consistently moist, especially during dry periods.
  4. Mulch & Fertilize – Apply 2-3 inches of mulch to retain moisture and fertilize with compost or a balanced fertilizer in early spring.
  5. Prune Annually – Remove deadwood and thin out older canes in late winter or early spring to encourage new growth and higher fruit production.

Harvesting Elderberries

  • Expect the first fruit production in 2-3 years.
  • Harvest clusters of dark purple berries in late summer to early fall when they are fully ripe.

With proper care, your elderberry cuttings will develop into vigorous, fruit-producing shrubs, providing delicious berries for jams, syrups, and medicinal uses!
