It's not the size of the bush, it's where you plant it that counts

A little smaller than I was expecting but it arrived healthy and is doing well.

I planted the elderberry bush

I planted the elderberry bush in the fall and it’s growing and thriving. Super happy with the results and quality. Definitely company I would go back to for future purchases.

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertWe love hearing this, Marija! Planting in the fall and watching it take off in the spring is one of the most satisfying things about gardening. We are so glad your Elderberry is thriving and we look forward to your next order!
