Narrative
Sambucus nigra cv. Purpurea - This is the old standard purple clone of Elderberry. Obtained from the North Willamette Research and Extension Center. A new cultivar called 'Black Beauty' has been released and 'Purpurea' is going by the wayside. Purpurea is a beautiful shrub. Its leaves first emerge as green, but quickly turn a shiny purple-black for most of spring (for all of spring if they get a bit of shade). But come warm weather, they turn olive green. This is supposed to be a 'fault' in that the purple doesn't last through summer, whereas Black Beauty leaves do stay purple until autumn colors supplant the purply-black. Jim Oliphant, July 2003.
