10 Live Organic Elderberry Cuttings (Sambucus nigra / Sambucus canadensis)

Grow your own backyard pharmacy! This listing is for three (10) live, unrooted, 100% organic elderberry cuttings, freshly harvested from our thriving, pesticide-free homestead. Elderberries are the ultimate multi-purpose plant—highly prized for their immune-boosting berries, fragrant medicinal flowers, and beautiful, wildlife-friendly foliage.

Elderberry is a vigorous, fast-growing deciduous shrub that is incredibly easy to propagate from hardwood or softwood cuttings. Within just a couple of seasons, these small cuttings will transform into lush, heavy-producing bushes, giving you an abundant supply of berries for syrups, tinctures, jams, and pies!

Why Choose Our Organic Elderberry Cuttings?

• 100% Naturally Grown: Zero synthetic fertilizers, chemical pesticides, or GMOs. Pure, clean stock for your organic garden.

• Rapid Growth: Elderberry grows notoriously fast, often reaching full size and producing flowers/berries within 2 to 3 years.

• Pollinator & Bird Magnet: The massive summer flower clusters attract bees and butterflies, while the autumn berries feed local birds (if you don’t harvest them first!).

• Wet-Soil Tolerant: Unlike many fruit trees, elderberries love moist environments and are perfect for rain gardens, ditches, or lower-lying areas of your yard.

Quick Rooting Guide (Included with Your Order)

💡 Pro-Tip: Elderberries root incredibly well in just plain water, or directly in a pot of moist, well-draining soil!

• The Water Method: Place the bottom 2 inches of the cuttings in a jar of clean water. Keep in bright, indirect light and change the water every few days. You will see white root bumps form in about 2 weeks!

• The Soil Method: Dip the bottom end in organic rooting hormone (or willow water), push 2–3 inches deep into a potting mix (perlite/peat moss blend), and keep the soil consistently moist.
