Plant Type

(Sambucus canadensis · Certified Organic · Currently Sold Out for 2025)

A prolific elderberry with massive blooms, long harvests, and dependable fruit—even in unpredictable seasons. Big flower heads. Big yields. Big presence.


Full Product Description

Wyldewood is known for its towering size, lush flower clusters, and unusually long fruiting window. Unlike most elderberries, it blooms and sets fruit simultaneously—producing for up to a month. With wide cymes of creamy-white blossoms and reliable late-summer yields, this variety stands out in the field and in the kitchen.

We’ve grown certified organic Wyldewood for five years and count on it for consistent performance. Plants reach 10–12 feet tall and wide, thrive in poor conditions, and rarely struggle with pests or disease. Even in tough seasons, they show up.

Our Wyldewood plants are propagated from our own organic stock—selected for vigor, cold-hardiness, and beauty in northern gardens.

A top pick for fruit production, floral harvests, pollinator support, and low-fuss hedgerows.
