According to the USDA map for the Dwarf elder, Sambucus ebulus, it doesn't grow in Georgia. http://plants.usda.gov/java/profile?symbol=SAEB If the berries turn out red, then probably Sambucus racemosa which also appears to grow in Georgia

Elder - but it is Sambucus ebulus. Important to know, they do not grow high (ap 60 cm to 150 cm), their flowers and berries should not be eaten by humans. All you get is tummy ache.
