Apparently they are edible but bitter and as Cyndi @cyndi says above they can be made into a jelly which is said to resemble elderberry jelly. I haven’t got enough to make a thimble full so I won’t be trying it this year Charlotte @charlotte 💜💜

This is my first year with it Kathryn, so I'll tell you what mine has done from a bare root in early spring It started producing leaves in early summer and it flowered about two months ago, as the berries formed the leaves turned to a beautiful purple/brown colour then started to fall, leaving just the berries, that's where mine is now. Not much help I'm afraid @katgreen 🤔🤔
