Discover the plant
Hippophae rhamnoides, commonly known as sea buckthorn, is a highly valued fruit and utility shrub, recognized for its exceptional hardiness and its bright orange fruits rich in nutrients. This vigorous shrub with a bushy, thorny habit is particularly appreciated for soil stabilization, natural hedges, and ecological landscaping. Its deciduous grayish-green, fine, and silvery foliage provides a discreet decorative appearance while tolerating harsh conditions, including poor, sandy, or saline soils. Female plants produce an abundance of orange berries rich in vitamin C in the fall, which are widely used in processing. Well-adapted to Quebec's climate, sea buckthorn is extremely hardy and cold-resistant. It constitutes a strategic choice for both biodiversity and northern orchard projects and habitat restoration.
