Common elderberry 'Aurea'

Fertilize in spring just before new growth begins.

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Aurea is thought of as very hardy, so this plant will tend to survive through freezing conditions.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Aurea is a very hardy plant.

Expect harvests to start to occur in early autumn.
