Hi! Does anyone know where I can buy sea buckthorn (hippophae)? I'm in East Galway. Also do you now if it is easy to grow? It's berries are super nutritious! Would be lovely to have in the garden!

Well, Missdevon -- how did you get on with the sea buckthorn ?

Were the plants you put in from a natural coastal source or otherwise ?
