Bring spectacular golden foliage, height, and architectural structure to your garden with this great value pack of 3 individual Sambucus ‘Golden Tower’ Shrubs, supplied as large, strong established plants, each grown in its own individual 3 litre pot by Direct Plants. Carefully grown and selected at our award-winning family nursery in Norfolk, these striking ornamental Elder shrubs are prized for their beautiful golden-yellow foliage, elegant upright habit, attractive summer flowers, and excellent garden versatility.
Sambucus ‘Golden Tower’ is a particularly impressive ornamental Elder, combining the attractive finely divided foliage associated with Sambucus with a naturally narrow, upright growth habit. Its fresh leaves emerge in vibrant shades of golden-yellow to lime green, creating a bright architectural feature that provides superb contrast against darker green, purple, and burgundy-leaved plants.
During early summer, established plants produce attractive clusters of creamy-white flowers held beautifully against the golden foliage. The flowers are attractive to bees and other beneficial pollinating insects, adding valuable wildlife interest alongside the plant's outstanding ornamental appeal.
The naturally upright habit makes ‘Golden Tower’ particularly useful where gardeners want height without the excessive spread of a broader shrub. It is excellent for mixed borders, smaller gardens, contemporary planting schemes, informal screening, and creating striking vertical accents.
This great value pack contains 3 individual large plants, allowing you to create an impressive coordinated display or position them separately around the garden as eye-catching golden feature shrubs.
Supplied as three strong, healthy established plants, each grown in its own generous 3 litre pot, this collection provides excellent value and years of beautiful seasonal interest.

Winter:
After leaf fall, the upright branching framework remains before vigorous fresh golden growth returns the following spring.
Habit:
