Hallo Doug,
Sambucus is e.g. containing much Appleacid, Grapeacid and Anthocyane.
Anthocyane are very strong antioxidants with many, many positive effects...
Probably this is the reason we strongly recommend Sambucus against a cold, an infection and even against infection-pain and others effects.
Only "wild"! Vaccinum berries have a much higher content. Vaccinum CV have almost none content.
We consider e.g. Samdal, Samyl, Sambu and Haschberg (bad umbel-ripening-time) for a very high Anthocyane content.
According to my information pure S. canadensis has always a smaller Anthocyane content.

Hans, is there a Sambucus nigra cultivar recommended for anyi-viral (common cold) activity?

Hallo Richard,
Sambucus nigra "Samdal" is really good, high Anthocyan! medium growth,
no special disease-problem at Germany, but many are possible.
"Allesöe" has even better harvest because of same ripening-time(per
umbel)! is one of the best for commercial plantations at Germany!
We use different cultivars for different chemical contents.
Probably you have also nice crosses between S. nigra and S. canadensis.

Hans
