Pocahontas - Fast-growing and high yielding, this elderberry varietal packs a punch! Flower cymes and berry heads are larger than others, up to 24” across. Shorter growing seasons may result in berries that don’t fully ripen, as blooms occur later than other varieties. Indeterminate
Pocahontas is a newer cultivar and highly desirable - we limit the quantity to try to allow more to try this exciting cultivar.

I got the cuttings and they are starting to grown. I’m excited to see how they will do
Hi there! We're so happy to hear that your elderberry cuttings are starting to grow. It's always exciting to see new growth and we hope they continue to thrive for you. Thank you for choosing our elderberries!
I bought 10 cuttings and 4 are dead. The other ones are doing awesome. The day I received them I unwrapped them and put them in a very high grade of potting soil. The live ones are growing leaves and are healthy
Hi there, Gail!
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for Pocahontas. We're sorry to hear that 4 of your cuttings are not growing as quickly as the others. Elderberry cuttings may take at least 4-6 weeks before you see growth, so they may just need a little more time. We're glad to hear that 6 have taken off very quickly for you.
Following is a link to our Elderberry Cutting Instructions to help with the 4 cuttings that are not growing as quickly as the rest: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CN8TpNSur_LotHp4JwG4YxYEstUFyVNqTuXg5lMQAYU/edit?usp=sharing

I just got the cuttings in the ground today. Compared to Bob Gordon, Ranch, and Adams, the Pocahontas cuttings were by far the largest. They appeared very healthy and just starting to bud out. I’m expecting these cuttings to be vigorous and am looking forward to the results.
