Gardening Know How Questions & Answers - https://questions.gardeningknowhow.comSee attach pics of elderberries I discovered on my property 2 years ago. The property was a farm at one time. They are close to a ditch. The did flower but have few berries on them. I’ve tried to clear the brush away and tie them up with stakes because they are all leaning into the ditch.. Any tips on how to get more berries. Thanks!
