Elderberries! AFFN has all the cultivars of them currently in the trade: Adams, Bob Gordon, John’s, Marge, Nova, Ranch, Wyldewood, and York.
We love them for their fragrant blooms from which delicious, floral syrup is derived. Boil the blossoms in simple syrup briefly for this fragrant treat. And we prize them for their berries. Also, boiling the berries for just a few minutes in simple syrup draws out a delicious blueberry/grape flavor.
