God bless this young lady she just taught me something new I was not aware of, we inherited a ranch my wife and I because her dad passed away and gave it to us and her sister so we are dividing up the land and I don’t know if we have any elderberry trees but I bet you what we are going to have some very soon I’m just praying to the good Lord above that they grow in North Texas like the Dallas Texas area that’s not where the ranch is it’s actually located near Sherman Texas which is about 60 miles north of Dallas . But I want to say thank you so much young lady for the information you have provided for us and God bless you and I pray to the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to bring you and your family lots of love peace and prosperity for the following years to come thank you once again for all the time it took to educate your audience appreciate your videos and with lots of love from Dallas Texas thank you ✝️✝️✝️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I am so in love with this content. Right now I’m renting a house and don’t have a lot of space but I know where an elderberry tree is around me and I totally think I could attempt this and plant them in grow bags/give to to people with houses.
Great idea….I got some starts last fall and put them in grow bags inside my greenhouse then pulled them out two weeks ago and they’re starting to bud……I’ve used kitty litter buckets after washing them well to start trees and just put some drainage holes two inches up from the bottom for a water reservoir.
Thank you so much for putting out this video on how to make starts from an existing tree. I have looked at so many videos on this subject and I often have question. You covered everything I needed to know in order to have success. THANK YOU & GOD BLESS.
Excellent how to video, you earned yourself a subscriber. I am trying to propogate some of my own cuttings this spring, they have been in water for about a week, changing water every 2 days. Hoping for the best!
Loved this video, I have started a bush, but it's slow growing where I live. I'll be making cuttings though when I can. Grape can also be propagated this way. I really enjoy elderflower tea. I'll have to do some in honey.
I'm retiring in a few months. One of my goals this year is to grow my own apothecary. I'm so glad I found you! I will be binge watching your vlogs and learning as much as I can over the next few months. Thank you for being so encouraging!!
Awesome video, thank you for sharing this! Elderberry is one of my “go to” medicinals for cold and flu season, I make elderberry syrup with raw honey and it works great. To be honest, I make most of my medicinals with raw honey, or I extract with mead. I don’t know if elderberry grows where I live, but I’m going to do some research and find out! God bless. ❤️
I love that your growing Elderberry's 🐝🐝🐝 I grow them too, but I'm always up for trying new ways of growing them. If I could I'd line them around my whole yard. For now I've got a half of a fence line. They provide the best shade on a hot day too, very whimsical to lay under. If your in the mountains be prepared they can be more of a tree then a bush, but I love that about them 💜💜💜
Good on you for teaching this. As you indicated the green leaves already sprouting isn’t ideal, but may work anyway. The commercial growers make their cuttings in January. Check out River Hills Harvest to see some commercial grows of elderberry in Missouri.
Great video! I thoroughly enjoyed it. And thank you for mentioning herbalist David Hoffman towards the end. I was able to glean some good information from that as well.
Can you point me to David Hoffman making the slave from the bark and leaves? I picked and dehydrated the leaves last year to make a healing salve..I will always have my elderberry bushes have many on my property as well as many I can forage from. I make 99% of the time tinctures..I plan on sending some dehydrated berries to my dil for my grandsons to make elderberry gummies..
The cutting ('s) that had the center hole in them, was that a bore worm? I have not seen one in person but that is not good to have around. Thanks for sharing.
Have you experimented with willow bark tea as a rooting hormone? It’s something I’m very interested in, but have to find willow down here in TN near me where I can get some clippings. Back in WNY willow was everywhere!
Hello, thanks for this video! It inspired me to take some cuttings off of my elderberry shrubs. I was wondering if you are planning on showing the progress of your cuttings. Thanks!
I bought a year ago 2 Elderberry trees and several starts. I am hoping to still get starts from wild trees here in NC. I still have a lot to learn. Can't wait for the flowers to make tea.thank you for the information. Take care.
I have an elderberry with white flowers and my neighbor has one with pink flowers Are there different benefits to these or are they used interchangeably medicinally or for making jam/wine?
You should be ok with the cuttings you have. I've done this time of the year cuttings from grape vines (juice types, wild, and wine). I just cut, refrigerate in plastic bags until the ground is unfrozen) and directly plant close together like a palisade fort wall. I cut them with an angled bottom end and flat top upper end to know which end is 'up'. Then just spear them into the ground.
I live in Pa, my cuttings i got are just getting roots, can I still plant them outside? I want to plant in raised bed...can I plant them or do I have to do pot thru winter then plant out in spring?????
Can you advise where you are located zone wise? We have just gotten some land in East TN and I would love to start some elderberry especially since there are no trees at all on the property .
Does anyone know if it's possible to get clippings in, say, June? I just found out the giant Elederberry on my work property is probably going to be taken out soon and I just found it. But it's June and it's flowering. I would love to propagate more from it before it's gone. Thanks in advance for any help!
I have tried 3 different times to propagate elderberry cuttings that I had purchased from other people. I have never had one grow. I wonder what I've been doing wrong! I was always told to stick them in the dirt....they just died. Any info on where to purchase cuttings that might be better?
I had the same thing happen , out of four different sellers I only had cuttings start from one . I dont know of they are selling lousy cuttings or what. I had great luck with my own cuttings off of my own plant.
I have some seeds I got from out in Montana that I would like to send to you. How could I do that. It will take a couple years to produce berries. There is like 100 seeds per pack, but they will easily fit in a regular envelope.
Huckleberry is what they are. They use it for a lot of stuff out that way. My cat keeps destroying my plant's as soon as they are sprouted around 2 inches. He's a brat. But for what you and your mom do, I figured that I could send you a pack of seeds and try them in your region. I have way too many of them seeds anyway.
I absolutely love your video! Yes I will watch more!

Guerrilla garden time!😁

Wow I didn’t know about the leaves. Exciting

Love this! It's so important to go outside, keep your eyes open, and learn from nature
Excellent how to video, you earned yourself a subscriber. I am trying to propogate some of my own cuttings this spring, they have been in water for about a week, changing water every 2 days.
Hoping for the best!
You always surprise me> Love You interlick.

Interesting I looked up (Blue) Elderberries in Utah and they will grow here in the mountain desert I was surprised
I'm starting something similar in my new farm...I appreciate your doing these videos so much!
I'm retiring in a few months. One of my goals this year is to grow my own apothecary. I'm so glad I found you! I will be binge watching your vlogs and learning as much as I can over the next few months. Thank you for being so encouraging!!
What a blessing Lyn 💛 I am so excited for you to grow your own apothecary! Always here if you have any questions!
Elderberry grows like weeds all over the uk we can’t kill it off and we try so hard to.

Winter temperature fluctuations. Man I'm so ready for spring warm weather. Awesome on the cuttings. Good health and God bless 👍
Thank you so much for sharing your know how🤙❤️

Well it is easy in Denver, Spring has not arrived, but another Snow Storm has 😁😁 Doctor Kaylee and Her Elderberry Trees...

Wow , thank you I will put this into practice on our farm.
Have a great day!
I want to grow everything you show us! I need bigger yard
I was just looking at elderberry plants online today they were $79 for a two gallon plant.

I did NOT know about the benefits of the leaves and bark, definitely going to look into that. Thanks for sharing. ❤️
You’re very welcome ☺️
Hi! Do you have a video processing the elderberries? I would love to learn how to do it. Thanks
Hello, thanks for this video! It inspired me to take some cuttings off of my elderberry shrubs. I was wondering if you are planning on showing the progress of your cuttings. Thanks!
Absolutely!!! I did share an update in the video “No Better time than Now..” and I do plan to share the planting process:)
I bought a year ago 2 Elderberry trees and several starts. I am hoping to still get starts from wild trees here in NC. I still have a lot to learn. Can't wait for the flowers to make tea.thank you for the information. Take care.
That’s so exciting!!!!
Which books of David’s that you are referring too thank you love you your videos
Did you say you’ve some you started before? If so We’d love an up date - once leafed out here soon - to see growth rate. This is wonderful info!!! 💚💜
I might have missed it. But you never mentioned pie!!!! It's my favorite. God bless! Keep up the great work!! Am a beekeeper also. An my son is also.
Try strawberry elder jam!!!!
@@pamelabratton2501 ok will do. Like apple elderberry jam
I have an elderberry with white flowers and my neighbor has one with pink flowers Are there different benefits to these or are they used interchangeably medicinally or for making jam/wine?
I don’t believe they have the same medicinal properties, but worth researching:)
You should be ok with the cuttings you have. I've done this time of the year cuttings from grape vines (juice types, wild, and wine). I just cut, refrigerate in plastic bags until the ground is unfrozen) and directly plant close together like a palisade fort wall.

I live in Pa, my cuttings i got are just getting roots, can I still plant them outside? I want to plant in raised bed...can I plant them or do I have to do pot thru winter then plant out in spring?????
First!
Can you advise where you are located zone wise? We have just gotten some land in East TN and I would love to start some elderberry especially since there are no trees at all on the property .
I’m zone 6b in Virginia:)
Do elderberries have to be cooked due to the contents of the elder?
Does anyone know if it's possible to get clippings in, say, June? I just found out the giant Elederberry on my work property is probably going to be taken out soon and I just found it. But it's June and it's flowering. I would love to propagate more from it before it's gone. Thanks in advance for any help!
I vote to give it a shot!!! You never know until you try :)
how does one Heat treat the elderberries and why. Thanks
I think they're toxic when raw. Boiling them when making syrup will cook them long enough to be safe.
Do you sell your clippings? I have not been able to find that variety
Good question!!! I probably can!
I have tried 3 different times to propagate elderberry cuttings that I had purchased from other people. I have never had one grow. I wonder what I've been doing wrong! I was always told to stick them in the dirt....they just died. Any info on where to purchase cuttings that might be better?
I bet you can see if anyone locally has them and willing to let you take a cutting.
I had the same thing happen , out of four different sellers I only had cuttings start from one . I dont know of they are selling lousy cuttings or what. I had great luck with my own cuttings off of my own plant.
I have some seeds I got from out in Montana that I would like to send to you. How could I do that. It will take a couple years to produce berries. There is like 100 seeds per pack, but they will easily fit in a regular envelope.
Oh that is too kind!!

You know how I know it's not spring yet? Your fingernails don't have dirt under them.
Lol true 🤣
@@TheHoneystead Kaylee had dirty fingernails in her last video on planting the seeds...
