Description Sea Buckthorn is a medium-sized, hardy, growing deciduous tree-like shrub, 0.5-6 meters (1.6-19.7 ft.) tall, rarely up to 10 meters (33 ft.) in central Asia. It grows along riversides, in mountainous areas, and in sandy and gravel ground and found growing profusely on a wide range of soil types, but does better in soils with a light physical structure, rich in nutrient compounds. Best growth occurs in deep, well drained, sandy loam soil with ample organic matter. It has dense and stiff branches, and is very thorny. Barks are normally brown or black thick and rough and a thick grayish-green crown. Leaves are alternate or opposite, distinct green at the top, and silver-ash green on the underside, lanceolate, 3-8 cm (1.2-3.1 in) long, and less than 7 mm (0.28 in) broad. It is dioecious, with separate male and female plants. Male plants produce flowers, which create the pollen, while female bushes produce the orange berry-like fruit. Flowering normally takes place from April to mid-May. Fruit Sea buckthorn is actually a rare species of fruit from Elaeagnaceae family. Sea buckthorn berries are usually pearl-shaped clustered berries 6-9 mm (0.24-0.35 in) in diameter, soft, juicy, and rich in oils and are normally yellowish-orange colored. The fruit consists of one bony, ovoid seed. They are normally oily, bitter, sour, tart and astringent in taste but are high in nutrient value. Due to its astringent, sour and oily taste it is unpleasant to eat raw, unless 'bletted' (frosted to decrease the astringency) and/or mixed as a drink with sweeter substances such as apple or grape juice. Apart from its distinctive taste it has higher nutritional value so it is extremely beneficial for all. The peak season for harvesting sea buckthorn is from August to October. |
