Sambucus racemosa ssp. sieboldiana
is a deciduous shrub or small tree that grows up to 6m tall and
branches well from the lower parts; the branches extend as if to
draw a parabola. Leaves are opposite, imparipinnate compound leaves
8-30 cm long. Leaves on flowering branches have 2-3 pairs of
leaflets, while those without flowers have 3-6 pairs. The leaflets
measure 3-10 cm long, 1-4 cm wide, and are oblong, with sharp tips,
bases round to cuneate, and margins with fine serrations. The new
branch tips produce 3-10cm-wide panicles and bear many 3-5mm-across
flowers tinged yellow-white, occasionally light purple. Drupes
mature in dark red. Bloom time: March-May. |
