Período de floración
Guía de cuidados
Plant in full sun to partial shade in moist, nutrient-rich soil. Elder grows quickly and is exceptionally adaptable — even in heavy clay. Water regularly during dry summers. The plant benefits from an annual layer of compost around the base.
Consejos de poda
Prune in late autumn or winter by removing old and crossing branches. For rejuvenation, you can cut elder back to 30 cm above ground — it regrows rapidly. Remove suckers at the base if the shrub grows too wide.

In autumn, hazelnuts follow in their characteristic green husks. Hazel grows multi-stemmed and makes a beautiful native hedge or specimen.
