| Negative | hawaiifarmer | On Mar 24, 2011, hawaiifarmer from Hilo, HI wrote: A small patch of Mexican Elderberry planted at a state park has become invasive in adjoining natural dry forest (mid elevation, Hawaii). We have cut trees down and tried several herbicides to kill the regrowth from the stumps, but it just keeps coming back! Be aware this plant may become invasive in cool, dry environments, difficult to kill if drought stressed. |
| Neutral | Rene10 | On Dec 16, 2009, Rene10 from Wauchula, FL (Zone 9b) wrote: This plant or small tree grows wild in Fl. evevry where the birds drop the seed, very prolific but easily controlled. Some make jellies from the ripe fruit. |
| Positive | Kelli | On Apr 26, 2005, Kelli from L.A. (Canoga Park), CA (Zone 10a) wrote: Fruits are edible and in my opinion are better than those of Sambucus nigra. It is reported that the raw fruits can make a person sick but they never bothered me. |
