Join Mike as he talks about how to propagate elderberries in the springtime. Mike is a long time elderberry enthusiast who has been tending his elderberry orchard for about twenty years. In that time he has gone from 200 plants to around 1,000. In that time he has been propagating the elderberry plants with the best berry yields, and has gotten pretty darn good at it!
He has also spent time learning the history and lore of the elderberry plant, as well as the optimal growing conditions in the Upper Midwest. In this video Mike demonstrates the best way to take cuttings from a thriving elderberry plant, the best ways to plant woody cuttings, and shares some interesting history along the way. Thanks for watching, and keep an eye out for more elderflower and elderberry content later in the summer.
