 ℹ We are very excited to offer this new and exceptional variety, Orange Energy® Sea Berry, from the work of H.J. Albrecht in Berlin. This patented variety is prized for its incredible crops of large, bright orange, flavorful and vitamin-rich berries with highly disease and pest resistant silvery blue rosemary like foliage. Crops are so heavy that in September the plant essentially turns orange. Needs a male pollinator to produce berries. 1 Male will pollinate up to 8 females. 
Very Popular in Eastern Europe, Russia and China, Sea Berry is a new and very valuable plant for North American gardeners. Also known as Sea Buckthorn, Sea Berry is prized for its exceptional ornamental value, tasty and healthy fruit, and the ability to grow in and actually improve poor soils! In late summer and fall, large clusters of bright orange-yellow berries cover the branches. Orange Energy® Sea Berry fruit is very high in Vitamin C (about 7 times more than lemons), Vitamin A, and E, and has a pleasant acidic flavor which, when sweetened, makes delicious juice. During the Cold War, East Germany used Sea Berry as a healthful substitute for orange juice. The fruit is also unique for its oil content, which is used as a treatment for burns and skin diseases as well as for ulcers and other illnesses. You will often see Sea Buckthorn as an ingredient in many nutritional supplements and cosmetics.
We harvest out fruit by hand or by cutting off the fruit laden branches and freezing them. The frozen berries can easily be shaken off and, after thawing, make great juice and preserves. Like cranberry juice, Sea Berry juice is usually diluted with up to 70% water.
