Sea Buckthorn vs Lowbush BlueberryHippophae rhamnoides l. Vaccinium angustifolium SOLD OUT (new stock expected: fall of 2021) SOLD OUT (new stock expected: fall of 2021) 
Sea Buckthorn is a nitrogen fixing shrub that produces attractive berries high in vitamin C.
Lowbush Blueberry, commonly known as the Wild Lowbush Blueberry, is often wild-harvested and thrives in low pH acidic soil. This early low-bush blueberry produces white and pink bell-shaped flowers in the spring. Its fruit is smaller in size than high bush blueberry plants and is more flavourful with an intense blueberry taste-masking it perfect for fresh eating, baking, and preserves.
