Sambucus 'Black Beauty'


Sambucus 'Black Beauty' (Sambucus nigra 'Black Beauty' (Gerda))

Not as feathery as Black Lace, but I love the texture of this one and the flowers are a nice pink too. I think this is going to make a great screen when it gets above the fence!

This is lovely and I think it might replace my New Dawn rose which looks 'orrible this year and that's after removing all the ivy from it last year :o((

We have one similar to this called Black Tower, it is still fairly small, not sure I like it as much as Black Lace, time will tell!!
