Sea Buckthorn is a nitrogen fixing shrub that produces attractive berries high in vitamin C.
Silver Buffalo Berry is a cold hardy, ornamental shrub that is commonly used in the first row of shelterbelts instead of caragana or lilac. It features subtle yellow flowers, smooth grey bark, and red fruit. On occasion orange fruit is produced and rarely a yellow fruit. Please note: we regularly collect the rare yellow and orange fruit to use for our seed source. SEA BUCKTHORN QUICK FACTSSILVER BUFFALO BERRY QUICK FACTS
