LEMONY LACE® Elderberry

Super detailed leaves and eye-catching coloring give Lemony Lace elderberry undeniable landscape presence. Its foliage groups in interesting ways, giving the plant an irregular mounded habit. This rather elegant irregularity is highlighted by the different colors the foliage takes on at different stages of maturity. It emerges a pretty burgundy in early spring, turns to lemony yellow, and softens to chartreuse or lime green depending on the sun exposure it receives.Aesthetically, it can easily slip into any garden style, perhaps a Japanese-style garden, mimicking a carefully trimmed maple or a tropical-style garden that celebrates bright colors. Its care is just as easy to manage. Leave it alone, and it’ll produce white flowers in spring and red berries by fall. Cut it down each spring, and it will act as a sort of perennial. Practically speaking, it’s resistant to sunburn, deer, and black walnut! Plant it in the trickiest spot you have and watch it thrive.Why grow Lemony Lace elderberry?Fabulous color throughout the growing seasonTough landscape performanceFine texture perfect for contrasting with other plants
