Red Elderberry (Sambucus pubens) is a sprawling deciduous shrub that grows naturally in rich or rocky woods, slopes, moist cliffs, and ravines. The tiny, fragrant, white flowers bloom in clusters from late spring to early summer. They attract bees, butterflies, and other native pollinators. The showy blooms give way to bright red berries in late summer, providing an important food source for birds and small mammals. While raw fruit can cause upset stomach in humans, they can be cooked and used in wines, jellies, and pies.
