Laced Up® elderberry is unlike any elderberry you’ve seen before. Its striking, fastigiate habit rises gracefully, accentuating the delicate, lacy foliage that makes elderberries so beloved—only here, the foliage is a dramatic near-black, creating an effect reminiscent of a flock of birds in flight. In early summer, soft pink flowers appear, eventually giving way to lustrous black fruit when a pollinator such as Black Lace® elderberry is nearby. Tall, narrow, and upright, this exceptional plant makes a perfect screen or vertical accent, bringing both function and flair to the garden. It’s a statement plant—bold, unusual, and captivating—ideal for gardeners who crave something a little out of the ordinary. Laced Up® doesn’t just fill a space; it transforms it, offering a dramatic focal point that invites admiration all season long.
