Description
Black Lace Sambucus (Sambucus nigra ‘Eva’) is a stunning deciduous shrub prized for its deeply cut, lacy, dark purple-black foliage that resembles Japanese maple leaves. This elegant yet hardy plant produces clusters of soft pink flowers in late spring to early summer, which contrast beautifully against its dark leaves and attract pollinators. In the fall, it develops deep purple berries that can be used for making jams, wines, or left for wildlife.
Black Lace Sambucus thrives in full sun to partial shade and well-draining soil, making it an excellent choice for borders, hedges, or as a striking specimen plant. Cold-hardy and easy to grow, this eye-catching shrub adds year-round interest and a touch of drama to any landscape.
