Highbush Cranberry vs Ranch ElderberryViburnum trilobum Sambucus canadensis Ranch SOLD OUT SOLD OUT
Highbush Cranberry produces attractive white flowers in late June and bears edible fruit that matures to a bright red colour in the late summer.
Ranch Elderberry is a vigorous and high yielding Black Elderberry cultivar. It ripens earlier than other varieties, and is smaller and more compact making berry harvest easier. The berries are well suited for baked goods, jams, jellies, and syrups. They are high in vitamin C and reported to be beneficial for the immune system. Planting them near other varieties for cross pollination and in full sun will result in higher yields. HIGHBUSH CRANBERRY QUICK FACTSRANCH ELDERBERRY QUICK FACTS
