Seabuckthorn is a hardy bush that adapts well to poor soil conditions and harsh climates. It is a nitrogen fixer with an extensive root system, excellent at combating soil erosion. Its orange fruit are very high in vitamins and other nutriens, including Vitamin E and Omega oils. The oils give the edible berries a creamy texture - they can be eaten fresh, or made into jam, pies and liquors. The fruit are also used for healing skin creams and lotions. A male pollinator is needed for fruit production.
