Sea Buckthorn vs Blue BeechHippophae rhamnoides l. Carpinus caroliniana SOLD OUT (new stock expected: fall of 2020) NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON 
Sea Buckthorn is a nitrogen fixing shrub that produces attractive berries high in vitamin C.
Blue Beech is a beautiful, ornamental tree with enticing features. The foliage transforms throughout the season, offering a kaleidoscope of color. New leaves emerge reddish-purple, transforming to dark green, and then turn striking shades of yellow, orange, and red in fall. Once all the foliage has dropped, grooved, blue-grey bark becomes striking on a winter landscape. SEA BUCKTHORN QUICK FACTSBLUE BEECH QUICK FACTS
