The Elderberry Black Beauty, 'Sambucus nigra', a Proven Winners selection, displays intense purple-black foliage for season long interest and color. The fragrant pink flowers are grouped in masses over 10 inches across and virtually cove the plan in early summer. Black Beauty produces dark purple berries in late summer that attract songbirds. Use this plant as a shrub or train it into a small tree. This will catch your eye!
