Fruits & Vegetables Week: Holunder-berries; Sambucus (elder or elderberry) 050111 NB

[nabha meghani]

Fotos taken in Ritterhude in August / Sept. 2009

Sending them, as I remember Prof. Singh ji had sent some Sambucus-fotos from India.

 

Berries are used to make juice and jam, they are rich on Vitamine C.

Flowers are used to make Bhaji, sending fotos separately.

Regards

Nalini

Yes this one is S. nigra. I had uploaded the herbaceous species S. wightiana, the Himalayan Elder earlier confused with European S. ebulus.
