In Arizona you do have a native Elderberry which you'll find in the higher forested elevation. And yes, that variety probably will struggle and not make it. However in San Diego County there is the native Mexican Elderberry which grows within the Chaparral in the inland hotter areas, but also to the coast. It does very well in 100+ Fahrenheit temps and produces loads of fruiting bunches. Also makes a great wine. I'd experiment with one or two trees or maybe take a trip and harvest ripe seeds and start some that way. Native nurseries out there will have them, like Moosa Creek Native Plant nursery in Valley Center just northeast of Escondido. So they do need another tree for cross pollination and if you have some tall shade trees, plant them near or under them to provide afternoon shade. In the wild in San Diego they can be partial deciduous as a strategy for survival, but only in drier hillside spots. If they are in a wash or floodplain where there is underground access to water, then they'll stay evergreen. I'm reading on the Net and watching RUclips videos where people are successfully growing in Central Arizona around Phoenix.

Hmm, might be worth giving that a shot. Thanks for the suggestion!

My husband and I used to listen to the Ice Age Farmer but haven't seen him on you tube. How do you see him
I used to listen to his Podcast, but it's been a while for me as well.

I believe you may be referring to B1 and if that's the case, yes. We always add B1 when we are planting trees!
Climate change 😂😂😂
