ABOUT
Elder (Sambucus nigra), also known as Common or Black Elder, is a flowering shrub that shares its family tree with about 30 cousins that belong to the Adoxaceae family. However, for many years, elder was listed as a member of the Caprifoliaceae family, most likely because its flowers bear a striking resemblance to those of honeysuckle.This native of Europe and North America shares another common characteristic with its true relatives— they all produce berries that range in color from deep violet or red to bluish-black. An important distinction to be made between them, though, is the fact that many species produce poisonous berries.
Herbal Info: When speaking of elder berries, or what we commonly refer to simply as elderberry, we’re speaking of Sambucus nigra, exclusively. [Note: The flowers, which are also edible, are obtained solely from Sambucus canadensis.]
The wood is also revered for its mystical powers. In fact, although it was once used to ward off “evil” witches, it is a preferred wood to fashion wands from by modern Pagans and Wiccans today. However, a word of warning: According to Dutch folklore, elder is home to Hylde-Moer, or the Elder Mother. As such, cutting down an elder tree without first obtaining permission from its guardian would invoke spiritual possession of the offending woodsman, as well as any object made from the wood.
