Fruits & Vegetables Week: Holunder-berries; Sambucus (elder or elderberry) 050111 NB:

Fotos taken in Ritterhude in August / Sept. 2009
Sending them, as I remember … had sent some Sambucus-fotos from India.
Berries are used to make juice and jam, they are rich on Vitamine C.
Flowers are used to make Bhaji, sending fotos separately.

– Yes this one is S. nigra. I had uploaded the herbaceous species S. wightiana, the Himalayan Elder earlier confused with European S. ebulus.

Fruits & Vegetables Week: Holunder flowers; Sambucus (elder or elderberry) 050111 NB: Fotos taken in Ritterhude in August / Sept. 2009.

Berries are used to make juice and jam, they are rich on Vitamine C. Flowers are used to make Bhaji, Pakodas. Mouthwatering.

– I think the European plant is Sambucus nigra, with usually five leaflets.

– yes it is Sambucus nigra. Foto of the leaflets I can take in April / May this year. At present the trees and bushes are leafless and covered with snow.
