Description Sambucus is a genus of flowering plants in the family Adoxaceae. The various species are commonly called elder or elderberry. The genus was formerly placed in the honeysuckle family, Caprifoliaceae, but was reclassified as Adoxaceae due to genetic and morphological comparisons to plants in the genus Adoxa.The oppositely arranged leaves are pinnate with 59 leaflets (or, rarely, 3 or 11). Each leaf is 530 cm (2.011.8 in) long, and the leaflets have serrated margins. They bear large clusters of small white or cream-colored flowers in late spring; these are followed by clusters of small black, blue-black, or red berries (rarely yellow or white).Elderberries are rich in anthocyanidins[3] that combine to give elderberry juice an intense blue-purple coloration that turns reddish on dilution with water.[4] These pigments are used as colorants in various products,[3] and 'elderberry juice color' is listed by the US FDA as allowable in certified organic food products.[3] In Japan, elderberry juice is listed as an approved 'natural color additive' under the Food and Sanitation Law.[5] Fibers can be dyed with elderberry juice (using alum as a mordant)[6] to give a light 'elderberry' color[clarify].Wikipedia
