Red Elderberry
White Rugosa Rose

Red Elderberry is an attractive, medium-sized deciduous shrub.

It produces clusters of white flowers in the spring and bright red berry-like drupes, which provide beautiful contrast against its coarse, textured green foliage.

Red Elder can be pruned as a small single or multi-stemmed tree.

Note: Unfortunately this difficult to grow species is not currently scheduled to grow at TreeTime.ca. Perhaps try purchasing seed from SeedTime.ca and growing your own? Or sign up for a restock notification above.

White Rugosa Rose has many characteristics that will make it both a reliable and beautiful addition to your yard. Tolerant of many conditions and incredibly cold hardy, this rose can withstand salt, poor soil, and wind.

White Rugosa Rose produces white flowers that are attractive and pure white with a papery texture. It will make a great impenetrable hedge or border that is also deer resistant.

Note: This variety is from a seed source, not cuttings. Although somewhat true to seed and color expect some variability.
