Elderberry Varieties


There are 20 varieties of elderberry, all of which are produced in the subtropical zone and most of the temperate zone of the Northern Hemisphere. China has introduced relatively few varieties, only about five. The main varieties of elderberry are Canadian elderberry, Luying elderberry, and Western elderberry. In recent years, some elderberries have been introduced from abroad, including the "Golden Leaf" elderberry, the "Golden Feather" elderberry, the "Purple Cloud" elderberry, and the "Mosaic Leaf" elderberry.

Canadian Elderberry


This variety grows in eastern North America and is the parent of the "Golden Leaf" elderberry, named after its golden leaves.

Lu Ying


This variety is also called comfrey. It grows in the Yangtze River Basin and the eastern part of the northwest region. It likes humidity and is commonly seen growing in humid areas.

Sambucus nigra
