ELDER {flower, leaf, berry, bark}
The medicinal properties of tart, sweet, elderberries are similiar to those of the flower.
But the berries are also anti-viral. Elderberry syrup soothes coughs, helps treat respiratory
infection and relieves allergic reactions. The wonderful flavor of elderberry syrup makes it
an excellent remedy for children.
