- Join Mike as he talks about how to propagate elderberries in the springtime. Mike is a long time elderberry enthusiast who has been tending his elderberry orchard for about twenty years. In that time he has gone from 200 plants to around 1,000. In that time he has been propagating the elderberry plants with the best berry yields, and has gotten pretty darn good at it!
He has also spent time learning the history and lore of the elderberry plant, as well as the optimal growing conditions in the Upper Midwest. In this video Mike demonstrates the best way to take cuttings from a thriving elderberry plant, the best ways to plant woody cuttings, and shares some interesting history along the way. Thanks for watching, and keep an eye out for more elderflower and elderberry content later in the summer.
I learned about elderberry just this year and I have 6 gallons of steamed juice canned now from wild bushes here in Northern Maine. I’ve been watching several elderberry propagation UA-cam videos and this is a really good one. Very useful information presented. Thanks.
Any follow up videos?
This year I’m starting a elderberry row with some 5 cultivars & some off wild local pants here in Wisconsin. Should be a fun project.
Good video! I planted one elderberry alongside my house some years ago, not knowing how to manage it. It gradually moved itself and its offspring into the driveway to get more sun. You have inspired me to grab some cuttings, do some pruning, and learn to take advantage of this treasure in my yard. Many thanks!
great information, thank you so much
I am trying to start an elderberry patch here in Ohio. I have acreage but starting with about 12 plants. They are not even a year old but just hoping they all make it
Wonderful video. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge! You mentioned another video about harvesting. I would love to see that if you might include that link... either way, thanks!!
Great video! On a mission to propagate elderberry for an abundance 🥰
great video! really appreciate it. i'm looking forward to attempting this next spring. i fear the window has closed already this year, but i might give it a whirl anyway as my mom has elderberry on her place.
Just propagated lots of elderberry to feed the birds . Lovely video.
Did you make any of the follow up videos by chance?
I have those same Fiskars clippers!
hi, can I cross pollinate american elderberry with another variety? or does it need to be another American elderberry. I am simply planting another elderberry for for more berries. What would you suggest for a second elderberry variety?
Great video. Thx for sharing your experience. I’m looking to plant 3 or 4 in my garden for my grandkids to enjoy. Any recommendation on a favorite variety? Thx!!!
I know this is 2 yrs later but, what ever happened to follow up on the elderberry flowers and berries?
Omg! I live in California, do you have have blue elder berry root stock? Have you ever grown it? If so can you tell me your experience with it? Looking to start a patch.
Do you use rooting compound?
I started to plants in the fall of 2022. They'll soon be when you're old and they are 6 foot tall and bushy. I would like to get a variety of genetics and would love to purchase a few stems from you. How do I do that?
How do we order starter plants from you?
