The black fruits of Sambucus ebulus (danewort, dane weed, danesblood, dwarf elder, walewort, dwarf elderberry, elderwort, blood hilder) follow the flat corymbs of small white flowers. This herbaceous, rhizomatous perennial has unbranched stems and the species has been widely used for herbal remedies.
