This black elderberry (Sambucus canadensis) bloomed for the first time back in June, now is blooming again with a flower cluster bigger than my head lol.

I love elderberry flowers!

Is it normal for you to get a second bloom?

*Edelweiss...

Edelweiss...

Every morning you greet me

Small and white, clean and bright

You look happy to meet me

Blossom of snow

May you bloom and grow

Bloom and grow forever...*

This was planted in fall 2022 and bloomed for the first time this summer, so no idea. I'm in the Chesapeake Bay area and it's been pretty warm down here.

You grow them too, right? Have you ever seen/heard of them doing this before?

I think I got a second flush, but not as far apart as you described! Mine has lost most of their leaves already this year.
