More Information

Description Lemony Lace® elderberry (Sambucus racemosa) will add instant color to your landscape! This unique native elderberry begins its show in earliest spring, when big, white flower clusters emerge from red buds. This happens well before the foliage emerges and makes for a truly unique look. Soon after, sunny yellow leaves emerge, and all are finely dissected for a lacy look. The effect is both colorful and textural, and we think it’s a great alternative to Japanese maples in areas where they can’t be grown. Lemony Lace elderberry was introduced by Proven Winners ColorChoice Shrubs, who selected it not just for its fantastic foliage and flowers but also because it is just half the size of conventional red elderberries, making it perfectly suited to home gardens and landscapes. *Berries are not edible and should not be ingested. Details Botanical name: Sambucus racemosa 'SMNSRD4'
Patent #: PP 26,613
Common name: Elderberry, Red elderberry
Zone: 4 - 7
Sun exposure: Full sun (6+ hours sun) to part-sun (4-6 hours sun)
Height x width: 4-7' tall & wide
Flower color: White
Foliage color: White/cream and green
Season of Interest: Spring-fall
Bloom time: Early spring
Features: Proven Winners, native, deer resistant, cold tolerant
Uses: Specimen, hedge, perennial gardens, landscaping
How To Grow Soil: Not finicky about soil, as long as it is well drained. Tolerates occasional wetness and dryness.
Light: Full sun (6+ hrs/day) to part shade (4-6 hrs of sun/day). The warmer the climate, the more beneficial shade becomes.
Water: Average.
Space: 6' apart, depending on your ultimate goal for the plant.
Fertilizing: Little needed. Apply a granular rose fertilizer in early spring if desired.
Winterizing: A good 2-3" layer of mulch is recommended; nothing else is needed.
Maintenance & Pruning: Avoid cutting plants back/trimming them; rather, prune out branches selectively to attain desired shape. If you want to have berries on your plant, you will need to plant another elderberry of the same species within 50' of this one. Not recommended for hot climates.

Lemony Lace® Elderberry

Beautiful contrast against green

While not a fan of yellow plants, I wanted something to contrast against a curve of dark green arb hedge with color and form. It arrived a little limp (soil was damp and it was well protected from damage but apparently it's not a fan of traveling). While waiting a couple weeks to prep the planting area, it perked right up in the pot and was twice the size by the time it was planted. Mid-Aug heat hasn't bothered it a bit. Compared to the hedge, it's a tiny thing right now but the light green/chartreuse lacey form is already a standout. It's going to be beautiful once matured.

Lemony Lace Elderberry

Just received 2 of these plants a few weeks ago. They arrived healthy looking and were packaged well. Planted them days later and are now taking hold. Realizing it may take a few years to reach their full growth, they have already grown a few inches and are looking great. Excited to see their growth and beauty as seasons pass.

Lemon Lace

I got the quart-size plant, and it arrived small but healthy-looking. It went into the ground here in Ohio on May 15 2021, in a mostly-sunny corner of the yard where we also have our beehives. It grew slowly but steadily, and now (August 28 2021) is a good 2 feet tall and doing very well. It has not flowered, but I didn't expect it to until the second year in the ground. All in all, a really pretty plant and a welcome addition to the garden.
