Description

The star quality of Sambucus 'Sutherland Gold' is clear for all to see - with a rich plethora of golden foliage and dissected leaves.

The foliage grows with a copper red shade in spring as creamy white flowers flourish in mid spring, making this variety perfect for summer blooms.

Elderberries glowing with a red lustre develop in the summer, to help feed birds in the autumn. The continuous changes and developments are a real point of interest and can add rich variety to your garden.

Sambucus 'Sutherland Gold' would make a wonderful addition to mixed borders and hedges and can grow up to 4 metres once matured, in around 10 to 20 years.

What's more, this beauty is both bee and butterfly friendly, while also being perfect for deterring pests such as rabbits and deer. With its ever-changing appearance and low maintenance features, it’s an investment that’s well worth making for gardeners of all levels!

Supplied as an established plant in a 3L pot.

Top Tips
Avoid planting in full sun, as this can lead to leaf scorch.
Care Information
  • For best results, grow in fertile, moist well drained soils in partial shaded locations.
  • Plant with a little space on either side to allow for expansion.
  • Also thrives on extremely chalky sites.
  • Requires an average amount of water.  
  • Benefits from pruning when young, to boost future blooms.
  • After flowering, older plants can be trimmed.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
