Card description
He makes yelling "Get off my lawn" into an art form.

With
Elderberry is a very powerful plant, even without evolving, being a "downgrade" of Power Flower, having one less strength and health than it without healing, but it doesn't mean it's a bad card. When evolved, it becomes an instant threat, due to having 5 and basically being guaranteed to hit the Zombie Hero.

Remember that Elderberry is a Flower, which gives it all the benefits of being a flower, such as being able to KO any zombie that hits it if Briar Rose is on the field.

Solar Flare uses this card best, due to her access to other Berries, mainly Sergeant Strongberry, which can make it so anything in the way of the Elderberry if evolved is hurt for 7 damage.

Against
This card can be a huge threat if left unattended, with at least 2, 5 if evolved, 4, and Strikethrough. Take it down at all costs before it dwindles your Hero's HP down.

Brainy heroes have the best chance, being able to Rocket Science it if it manages to evolve, and if you're Super Brainz or Rustbolt, use an even cheaper option, which is Cut Down to Size.

Sneaky can use Deadly to take down Elderberry, though this allows Elderberry to attack, and possibly land that devastating damage, but also takes it down before it can do much. Sneaky also has access to bouncing with Pogo Bouncer or Backyard Bounce and Freeze it with Ice Pirate (though an environment is needed), Frosty Mustache, and Frozen Tundra if you're Brain Freeze.

Beastly can flat out destroy it with B-Flat, Locust Swarm, or Squirrel Herder, due to Elderberry being a berry.
