We grow Elderflowers particularly well at PP Armidale, they like the cooler climate, higher altitude and better draining soils. All parts of the elder tree have traditional use in healing, but we use mainly the flowers, and berries when they are available (regular rainfall dependent!). Elderflower was also our first cream (many iterations ago) and remains one of our best-selling, customer favourites. Here is some of current the literature on its properties, although current research has centred on the berries more:
- An Evidence-Based Systematic Review of Elderberry and Elderflower ( Sambucus nigra ) by the Natural Standard Research Collaboration {January 2014, Journal of Dietary Supplements 11(1) DOI: 10.3109/19390211.2013.859852] And it concludes with: "According to secondary sources, the flowers and berries (blue and black only) are used most often medicinally. They contain flavonoids, which have been found pre-clinically to possess a variety of biochemical and pharmacological actions, including antioxidant and immunologic properties that have shown benefit in treating influenza, bacterial sinusitis, and bronchitis. Although it has been hypothesized to be beneficial, definitive evidence from well-conducted human clinical trials is currently lacking regarding the use of elder, especially as monotherapy."
