Sambucus canadensis

Not too many know of this valuable fruit one can grow, they actually taste pretty good picked right off the bush.

Grown out at the acreage,..most ripened this year in good summer heat.

Well...with the red hardier ones, you don't want to eat them, they can be toxic, especially in the seeds from what I've heard.

Oh really, Konrad? I didn't know that they could be toxic - thank you for letting us know! So hard to tell what are edible and what are toxic... :-)
