Elder is viewed in folklore as being a protective tree. It was auspicious if it was growing near one’s dwelling, especially if it had seeded itself there.

The scent of the white elder flowers was said to poison anyone foolish enough to fall asleep beneath the tree. Sitting under, or more riskily sleeping under, an elder at midsummer was said to enable one to see the faeries, or even see them going to their midsummer feast. In Ireland, witches were thought to use elder boughs as magic horses.

The frothy blossom is gathered in June to make delicious elderflower cordial.

About Cally Conway

Lover of the natural world, my prints are inspired by nature and folklore. I am based in London, (U.K) though am constantly drawn to the beauty of nature and its place within our world.

I began producing etchings and collographs at art college, and came to linocut printmaking much later.

I really fell in love with the process of linocut; something about the carved line as a way to translate my sketches, and to explore pattern and texture.
