Does anyone know where I can purchase a couple of elder shrubs, Sambucus
Nigra, in the Liverpool area?

If you're down in Berks when the berries are out, somewhere outside
Reading is the Courage Brewery Shire Horse Centre, at the back of
which are (or used to be) some very fine ones with extra-big berries:

If I'm reading your mind right, once your trees are established feed
and mulch them for a good crop.

Mike.


Thanks for the advice. I am hoping to get the children to plant an area of
my school with native UK plants this year. Elder is surprisingly hard to
source.
