Additional Notes about Sea Buckthorn:


Species Hippophae rhamnoides are known to be invasive.  It has not yet been established whether the cultivars are as vigorous.

Grow Me Instead suggests Viburnum lentago, Aronia melanocarpa, Myrica pensylvanica (Morella pensylvanica) among others, as potential substitutes.
