Siberian Larch Oasis

Sea Buckthorn, aka Seaberry, is a nitrogen fixing shrub that produces attractive berries high in vitamin C.

While we can't confirm claims that the berries are effective in treating various ailments, many people believe consuming the berries helps with arthritis, infections, and asthma, among other things.

Sea Buckthorn plants have attractive pale silvery-green leaves, dense branches, and large thorns, people like to grow in ornamental hedges or as a first row in a shelterbelt.

Note: these plants typically reach maturity and make their sex easily known (females producing fruit) in their 3rd or 4th year of growth. Our seedlings are too young to identify their sex.

The Siberian Larch 'Oasis' is perfect for shade in the summer and sunlight in the winter as it drops its needles in the fall. A dense deciduous conifer tree with an attractive oval shape and a strong central leader, this larch is perfect in a shelterbelt for protection in the summer and sunlight in the winter. The delicate and fine needle texture that makes it an attractive feature in landscaping projects and is show-stopping in the fall with foliage that turns gold.
