Elderberry Lemony Lace #3

Lemony Lace Elder features showy clusters of lightly-scented creamy white flowers held atop the branches in mid spring. It has attractive gold deciduous foliage which emerges antique red in spring. The deeply cut ferny compound leaves are highly ornamental but do not develop any appreciable fall color. The red fruits are held in abundance in spectacular clusters in early fall.

Lemony Lace Elder is a dense multi-stemmed deciduous shrub with an upright spreading habit of growth. Its relatively fine texture sets it apart from other landscape plants with less refined foliage. This shrub will require occasional maintenance and upkeep, and is best pruned in late winter once the threat of extreme cold has passed. It is a good choice for attracting birds to your yard.
