Lord Sea Buckthorn (Male)

Ninebark is a small, multi-stemmed shrub, that is used to add texture or colour to any yard.

Lord Sea Buckthorn is a male variety that is a pollinizer for female plants. One male plant is capable of pollinating 5-7 female plants. Male Sea Buckthorn plants do not produce berries, but the pollen from their flowers allows female plant to set fruit.
