    Hi,
    Just wondewring if anyone has planted and grown these? Could you recommend where to get them? Would they take long to produce flowers and berries. I want them eventually for home brew and cordial.
    Thanks!

    Your better getting them from wild. Elder is very fast growing and would be a nuisance in a garden. Plenty of large elder trees in alsaa out the back of the pitches. Its across from airport if you live in dub . But you will find elder and sloe in most wild hedges.
