Elder Tree Planting Set (Sambucus nigra) by Meinwoody

The elder is a true super tree: its blossoms are fragrant, can be deep-fried or made into syrup, its berries are rich in vitamins A, B, and C – and since pre-Christian times, it has been considered a magical medicinal plant. With this set, you can plant it yourself: open, press in seeds, water. Done.

What's included

  • 5–10 Elder seeds (Sambucus nigra)
  • Plastic-free planting pot made from hemp fiber composite – 100% compostable
  • Approx. 150 ml Terra Preta soil
  • Dimensions: 6 × 6 × 5 cm (L × W × H)
  • Grass paper cardboard with planting instructions

Interesting facts about elder

The black elder (Sambucus nigra) is one of Europe's most versatile cultivated plants – a remedy, food source, and ecological powerhouse all in one.

  • Blossoms: fragrant, edible, as syrup or tea for fever & colds
  • Berries: rich in vitamins A, B & C as well as potassium – as juice or jelly (do not eat raw!)
  • Formerly used for dyeing fabrics and food
  • Important food plant for bees, butterflies & birds
  • Magical medicinal plant since pre-Christian times – with a long history in folk medicine

How it works

Press seeds into the soil, water – and let grow. After nurturing, you can plant the bush directly with the compostable pot into the ground or a larger container. The pot decomposes without residue within 12–24 months. Your plant roots freely and undisturbed.

Germinating Tree Seeds

1. Place about 5 tree seeds in the freezer for 24 hours, then in lukewarm water for 24 hours to soften. Please note: do not apply this step for Moringa. Moringa cannot tolerate frost.

2. Place WOODY on a saucer. Press the softened seeds 1-2 cm deep into the soil. Then water until the soil is nicely moist.

3. Place WOODY in a bright spot. Keep the soil moist until the seeds germinate. Germination can take about four to twelve weeks.

4. Plant your tree when it is more than twice as tall as the pot is wide. Place the tree, including the compostable pot, into the soil.

Further planting and care tips can be found here.

* A saucer is not included in the delivery.

Bitte beachte: Pflanzen sind einzigartig und können sich in Aussehen, Farbe, Form und Größe unterschiedlich und verschieden zu unseren Angaben und Bildern entwickeln. Äußere Umstände wie Bodenbeschaffenheit, Klima, Luftfeuchtigkeit, Luftzufuhr oder Temperatur können die Entwicklung von Pflanzen maßgeblich beeinträchtigen.
Vereinzelte Baumsorten sind genetisch so veranlagt, dass die Keimung bis zu fünf Monate dauern kann - hier ist besonders wichtig, die Erde dauerhaft feucht zu halten und geduldig zu bleiben.
