Elaeagnaceae
Hippophae rhamnoides ‘Lord’ is a male sea buckthorn selected specifically for effective pollination of female cultivars. A vigorous, bushy, and thorny shrub, it stands out for its very abundant spring flowering, producing ample pollen to ensure optimal fertilization and high yields in neighboring female plants. Its deciduous, silvery-green foliage offers discreet ornamental interest and excellent tolerance to harsh conditions, including poor, dry, or sandy soils. Extremely hardy, ‘Lord’ is perfectly suited for northern climates and projects such as structured fruit hedges, sea buckthorn orchards, and ecological landscaping. Well-established in full sun in very well-drained soil, it is an essential strategic choice for any productive sea buckthorn planting in Quebec.
