Description
Additional information
Elderflower has a long history in European traditional medicine, where it was used for centuries as a natural fever reducer and to relieve cold and flu symptoms.
In European folklore, the elder tree was considered protective, and planting it near a home was believed to ward off evil spirits and protect against lightning.
The same tree that produces elderflowers also yields elderberries, which are used to make wine, jam, and natural colorings.
