Elderflower Identification

Hello Gardeners,

I’m currently making lots of elderflower cordial. I have quite a bad foraging reputation and have nearly poisoned me and my partner a few times. So I just wanted to check I have identified the shrub correctly! It does smell like elderflower but again with my foraging history I am really doubting myself.

thanks in advance!

    It does look like elderflower and if it smells like elderflower too....
    Test the cordial out on your partner first tho :)

    I was having a sniff at some earlier whilst walking with my dog - the scent is gorgeous.
