Question
Continues from my last post about possible elderberry. Flowers are off now. But when on were white and smelled amazing. Maybe poke berry ?
Answer
MadeleinRae, the plant in the images looks to be a small individual of Sambucus racemosus (red elderberry). The opposite, pinnately compound leaves and array of flowers that is taller than wide point to this species. Sambucus canadensis (black elderberry) has a flat-topped array of flowers, but not Sambucus racemosa. Best wishes.
