Sambucus nigra ‘Pulverulenta’                                 Variegated Elderberry

 Size:  4’ X 6’

 Exposure:  Sun to Part Shade

 Flower Time: June

 Ornamental Characteristics:

 This plant has the same species characteristics as mentioned in Madonna, but deviates as described below.  After observing this selection in Bernheim’s nursery, the plant has a much smaller stature than the species.  Without yearly cutback, Pulverulenta maintains a dense habit in full sun.  The variegation on the foliage is reminiscent of them being sprayed with white spray paint.  These irregular spots hold up well in full sun with no burn.   All soil and moisture tolerances are the same as the species.
