Sambucus nigra BLACK TOWER 'Eiffel 1'
Dark purple elder with an upright and thick shape.
BLACK TOWER has an interesting upright and naturally thick shape.
Its young shoots are green. Then the large-sized foliage becomes deep purple brown, covering the plant from the base upwards.
In June - July, from a very young age, nearly at every node, numerous quite small pink and white flowers open, contrasting with the foliage. Black fruit appear in the autumn.
