DESCRIPTION
Seeds should start to germinate within 5-10 days. Soil should be kept moist to prevent seeds drying out. Seeds should be covered with a very light layer of soil. Prior to sowing, the seeds should be soaked in water for 48 hours. Propagation from seed is relatively simple and produces a large number of seedlings at fairly low cost compared with other propagation methods. Seeds can be stored up to 3-5 years before lost viability. Germination tips: Give plants full sun and good drainage, and space them about 7' apart or 3-5' for a hedge. They are extremely hardy, to -50° F., disease resistant and easy to grow. Branches are used in floral displays, and commercial crops are harvested by cutting off entire fruit-laden branches.USDA Zones 3-9. Some have even started bonsai versions of the Sea Buckthorn tree. Hippophae rhamnoides, Sea Buckthorn is widely used for healing in Asia and Europe, where it is valued as a potent anti-oxidant, a source for Vitamin C and a healing oil. The attractive small tree or shrub, also called Seaberry, is likely the most widely grown, northern hardy, fruiting plant in the world, but most Americans have never heard of it. In Europe, the sour, flavorful fruit is sweetened and its orange-passion-fruit-like flavor makes fine sauces, jellies and a base for liqueurs. Blended with other fruits, it makes a delicious juice. The plants, native to the Russian Far East, are incredibly productive and a great choice for backyard fruit production. Narrow silver leaves and plentiful round, yellow-orange fruit cover the 6-10 foot tree.
