After the second year of life, its growth stops. After the appearance of foliage, thick, naked superficial roots resembling ropes begin. The mature plant has girth of the roots on the soil surface more than 10 m, but they are fragile and easily deformed.
- The tree trunk has many long gray-brown branches and in most varieties they are dressed with spines.
- The leaves of the sea buckthorn are sequentially, one on a short cutter, the color changes from gray at the base to the green on the tip. In the length of the allocy sheets do not exceed 8 cm.
- Flowers have female and male on different sea buckthorn shrubs. Men's tight flowers are presented in a dark brown and are collected in the inflorescence of the spikes of up to 8 mm of 11-14 flowers. Yellow-green female flowers are collected by 3-5 pieces in inflorescences - brush, pestle. Flowers on branches appear in the late spring. Due to the special location of flowers on a tree, pollination of flowers can be carried out only with the transfer of the air pollen. With the help of insects, pollination does not happen, because nekomnikov is not on the flowers of both floors.
- The fruits are sour taste of busty, resembling a ball or oval, presented on a short spawn. Juicy fruits do not exceed 1 cm in diameter and are yellow, orange or red. Maturity of berries are found from the end of summer until the middle of the autumn.

Varieties and sequel
In Russia, 74 varieties of sea buckthorn in the State Register were listed. The plant's hydrochlorination began with wild species growing in the cold climate of the Altai Territory. After familiarization with the culture, there are a number of difficulties in growing. The collection of healing berries was aggravated by large long spines on branches, and an additional problem was an extensive growing of the roots of the tree, exciting the large territory of the garden plot. In the 1980s, the method of growing plants was patented in the USSR, in which spying spikes die over time.
Breakingers brought a large number of varieties that have the following distinctive features:
- increased sweetness of fruits;
- no prickly spikes on trunks and branches;
- enlarging the size of the fetus;
- different color of berries: from grades with yellow fruits to saturated red;
- low shrubs and high, reaching 18 m trees;
- the best stability of the plant to disease and pests;
- various degree of frost resistance.
It is quite important for the future rich harvest and good development to choose a sea buckthorn variety, most favorable growing in the European part of the country or in Siberia. A varieties intended for landing in Siberia are more winter-hardy, have a short rest period, so when heat is offset, the plant begins to actively grow. After warming of frost after warming, will lead to the cessation of plant growth and the death of developed kidney and fruiting areas.
War buckthorn bottle collection specificity
- Sea buckthorn fruits ripen and ready to collect from August to October. Find out that the berry was filled with a juicy flesh with fragrant juice and came the time to collect, possibly on orange color, dense attic on the branch.

- A similar fast way is that the berry branches cut off the shrub and the fruits are closed on the fruit. The advantage of the method in the easiest subsequent collection of frosty berries from the branch. The minus will be an inaccurate attitude with the plant, which will harm its development. Berries collected in this way are suitable only after defrosting, that is, from such an ingredient it is no longer possible to squeeze juice or cook good jam.

- Siblings are planted in the spring, for better growth, they need to be emphasizing fertile land in the first month by 10 cm, in the second - by 20 cm.
- The first year after landing is actively growing the root part, from which the soil must be constantly maintained in a wet state.
- Siblings who have rooted further than 1 m from the landing center are separated and searched for a large distance from each other.
Shining is another effective way of reproduction.
- Before the appearance of a coating or immediately before landing, cut off a bit of the weird shoots.
- The cuttings prepare and sit in the dirty ridges filled with sand and humus, leaving a couple of kidneys over the earth.
- Watering need the first month abundantly, not allowing the Earth's misses.
- The cuttings can be put at home in small pots, at the bottom of which to put drainage, covered with the soil from above.
