Happy growing!
I had to giggle a little at "I think loving thoughts as I plant them." You're one of a kind, man! Wish there were more people in this world with such a strong conviction that all living things are precious.
Yes, I thought that was great as well. When I'm planting my mind is a complete blank for the best part.
A complete blank is WAY better! Quiet and empty mind... that's the goal!
@@edibleacres all joking aside, I actually think this mental state is very important. Propagating plant material, especially something like seabuckthorn should be done while very much "in the moment" and aware of the actions we are taking. Not something to be done haphazardly!
You got me with the "pure elegance"
Just starting a nursery here north of Grand Rapids MI. I wanted you to know that you inspired me to start small and see where it goes. Keep the videos flowing guy! The quarantined need you!
Good luck!! Hope the nursery does incredibly well for you!
I usually pretty much just smile quite a bit while watching your videos, but that "pure elegance" bit just cracked me up 😆 good stuff
My man I receive so much information from you. I don’t know what I would do with out you videos.. Amazing work
Wow, so glad you find them useful :)
Does Sasha have a cookbook for all the wild greens she cooks? I keep hearing about the wild plants she'll prepare and want to know how to do it myself. Please and thank you!
We definitely plan to get some videos together on it... She's got a ton to share.
I thought and read that Seaberry loves well drained, stony-sandy soil, so I wouldn’t imagine these plants to grow in this kind of waterlogged clayish soil! Maybe it’s the loving thoughts and whispers… 🥰😍
But if you do it and you are incredibly successful in growing these, it should work here, too… 🙏🏻🤩
I have some seaberry near my asphalt driveway and have observed the runners trying to come up through the asphalt and severely bending and warping that drive. I am personally fine with that, but it does go to show how powerful the plant is and the desire to spread with runners. On the other side of the plant are wood chipped pathways that runners emerge from every year. Makes for a very easy time removing the runners and propagating. Amazing plant! Thanks Sean.
Very high value and expensive to get initially, and then easy to propagate over time. Almost too easy!
The channel has what appears to be the highest like to dislike ratio of any channel I follow, and deservedly so. :) Musta felt great getting your hands dirty. Grounding is one of the keys to good health. Barefoot gardening is tops with me.
My place is high, dry, steep, so little natural soil, and every bed needs a surround to keep fertility in place. My "mouth waters" at the fertility you have built and the way you work with muck and water to your's and the plant's advantage. Bravo! Water is a Blessing.
I know, right? Sean's site is what many would consider a nightmare, but he makes it work. Hit site is actually almost like a giant chinampa!
Lol I loved the Pure Elegance it added the perfect touch lol 🤣🤣!!!
“Gentle whispers” what a legend! Awesome vid brother and I know for certain these plants respond to our voice/intentions. God bless you.
Wow, what a difference in the property fro here to now! Thanks for the info. Starting a sea berry journey and trying to learn more!
Best of luck to you!!!
Just noticing the holes in the spade here and remembering some discussion of this and seeing how helpful it is, to be able to drain the mud a bit as you dig.
" i think very loving thoughts while im planting them". beautiful man, the plants will always be juuust fine, its us that need the tlc and gentle whispers
Thank you for the education!
Loving these propagation videos. Thanks!
My pleasure to share.
Gentle whispers LOL!
Great video! Crazy how wet your property is! Very interesting topic!
It dries out a bit later in the season, but we are basically in an upland marsh here.

After watching where you plant seaberry, I have realized that this plant loves very moist soil.
I have been growing it for 3 years and not even close to your success. While I live in a similar climate, I chose to plant our seaberry in an area where it is slightly higher and drier in our landscape and gets full sun. They are much slower to grow this way it seems. I'll be heavily mulching to retain more water very soon.
Great stuff!
Deep mulch should be super helpful for them. For being early succession and rugged, etc., they do love an even soil moisture and lots of organic matter! You'd think they were a more needy plant considering !
@@edibleacres yeah I really don't think they are very picky. My seabuckthorn came from the wild, and they were growing in an abandoned parking lot. This is the kind of plant that goes: "make home in the back of an abandoned pickup truck? Well, okay here goes nothing"
What fun to watch the pulling and planting! Definitely elegant. Thanks for your hard work. Speak sweet nothings later. 💖
You inspire me🤗Thank you! Just starting out here in the midwest, helping a few acres of land restore itself, including areas to help feed me😉.
I love it. You are so kind and yet concerned about being too rough.
Gentle whispers, haha 😎🤗💛
Awesome sean.......locust trees spread in the same manner......i make sure i keep it mowed around them......
Mowing will keep them in check, but it's nice to know you can take 'copies' to move to new areas, too...
Wonderful information, thank you.
You bet

Marble tulip juicy tree!
Just what I needed to see! It helps me to understand the context of how much or little care seaberry requires and in a funny way allows me to give myself permission to experiment. I won’t disturb my entire thicket this way, but it’ll be interesting to look at it next year and see what the response was to my moving them. Thank you. Be well.
That is part of the goal with videos like these... show folks someone working in a rough and tumble way, thoughtful and appreciative but not precious and delicate... We could all use more permission to be a bit more loose in how we work with the natural world.
Loving thoughts :) I love watching other mindful gardeners.

That will be so useful and beautiful when it all grows!!!!
Awesome video! Cant wait for our plants to start suckering like this, and now I know how to manage when they do. Thanks!!
You can stimulate it with a little 'knicking' here or there, or planting crops around them that you may dig for a little later in the season (carrots, beets, parsnips, etc). Gentle, light digging later on could knick and stimulate running. If the soil is rich enough, though, they'll spread like mad in no time. They really are weedy. We have so many runners we have to move this spring it's almost overwhelming, in a wonderful way!
Ha, and i thought our medow is wet! Love your way of looking at the world. Very inspiring and always translatable into (my) real live 'garden'. Thanks for that =)
We do this a lot! If anyone in Ontario,Canada is interested.
beautiful start for the morning for me lol lol
Wow! I wouldn't have thought they would be able to survive in such wet soil.
They seem incredibly adaptable. The soil will dry out over time, this is just a particularly wet moment right now.
I wish you posted an update comment or video on whether the transplanted plants survived.
What do I want to do with Seaberry? How do I prepare it? It looks like a truly invasive plant. Can I plant it in my recently opened up woods to beat out the sticker bushes?
Not Sean, but I work with this plant a lot myself. Seabuckthorn is very invasive but it does not outcompete much. It has thin leaves which do not block sunlight to the soil very well - a signature of a great pioneer plant. They rebuilt soils but do not strangle and stall the progression of ecosystem transition from scorched earth to forest.
Seabuckthorn is used very effectively to create a wall to block animals, but less-so as a wall to outcompete other plants. If this was your only goal, you could use them in combination with 2 other plants... one rhizome blocker and one shade maker. So for example, a wall of seaberry with a tight border of comfrey as a rhizome wall, and grow broad leaf bush beans all in it, to shade the soil. If the plants you are trying to wall off are taller, then consider climbing beans to get up higher.
Now, due to the comfrey, you would not want to dig in there much (if at all), so instead use that entire wall and a chop and drop soil builder. End of season, you could cut the whole thing to the ground (but not disturb the roots). Make biochar out of the seabuckthorn, infuse the comfrey as mulch or compost activator.
But no, seabuckthorn on it's own will actually not outcompete much. It spreads like the Dickens, but will not strangle and block.
I really want to give these another try at the project Farm. I bought Seaberry from many sources, only a few have done good. I think I'm ready to try yours.
They seem to really like a rich, moist, clay.
They are actually kind of difficult as a bare root. Out of the dozens of plants I've bought from Sean, seaberry is the only one that didn't take at my place. I would pot them up for at least a year if you get anymore.
Did you notice any yield differences in neighbouring crops as you've moved your seaberrys around? I heard silverberry can add 10 percent to orchard yields.
Would this work in fall before the plant goes dormant? Thank you for the great content :)
I’ve propagated multiple varieties of sea berries by just taking a cutting and putting in ground roots came within 2 weeks.
Thats awesome! You've got the touch :)
Do you have any sea buckthorn you have cut down to the ground on a semi-regular basis? Once the root is established I’m wondering if they will respond like elder and just pop up several feet of growth. We just planted our first plants this year so I’m not sure what the maintenance looks like and I can’t find a lot of information.
Oh, Another question. From Jesse
The same question for saskatoon trees, If you grow them. Thanks
I have never rooted saskatoon from hardwood or softwood, but certain types (alnifolia and stolinifera in particular) sucker strongly and you can lift those to propagate clones from those runners.
at 5:00 is my favorite Dandelion.
I had no idea seaberry fruit was so good for you! Might have to plant some myself! Thanks!!!
It is one of the highest level medicinal and nutrient content fruits you could hope to grow in the north.
@@edibleacres it is crazy to think, but that may actually be underselling it. Seabuckthorn can go toe to toe with anyone in a battle for the single most nutrient rich and medicinal plant on the entire planet.
It appears the more organics in the soil the easier for you to divide and transplant.The more time spent on soil amending the less time spent in the future on other jobs. Compost piles the returns on time and healthy plants are endless.
Definitely true... The time spent adding organic matter to soil translates into MUCH easier times later and much healthier plants, too. Always worth while!
Raspberries also spread like this......and it was a lesson in knowing about what is being planted. Lol
For sure! Raspberries can run like mad in rich soil. They are pretty darn weedy for us!
What does seaberry taste like?
The flavors can range, but a good seaberry fruit is like a twangy tangerine flavor, sometimes like a grapefruit or other citrus, but with more complexity and a very satisfying fatty mouth feel. Pretty incredible. The nutrition and health profile is off the charts with them.
I have lots of bushes but never any fruit yet. Am I doing something wrong?
They are male and female only. You need to make sure you have a lord for every few females if you want fruit.
Definitely check that you have a male or two in your group. I have another video from a little ways back that explains the different flower buds so you can verify what types you have... Good luck!
I have a question about whether or not seaberry will pleach? Do you know if they will? I'm thinking that if they will, especially with the suckering pattern, they could be very effective elements in a living fence system.
I think it is worth trying if you have enough plant material to experiment. I have noticed that in the immense suckering habit they have that some older stems will randomly die out, so I don't know if that means if they are injured or laid at an angle if they woudl just quit trying and focus on more new shoots, but either way it's something to try!
Do you feel that it would be unwise to plant in the vicinity of a septic system then? It does seem to stay near the surface, no?
Seems to run really along the surface... I'm not going to offer specific suggestions, but it seems shallow and running more than deep
Hi, This is Jesse I 'am a subsrciber now, But been watching your videos for a while now. I try cloning anything I can, Ton of experiments, with and without success, Room wise indoors, to use heating pads. and already high electric bill. I do my clonig( of hard wood cuttings) on the window sills, Here in Pa, zone 6. in the zip lock baggy method. And Also out side in the open, in pots and wood boxes what ever, even used tires. Can I use these methods to clone my seaberry cutting? And how old must a seaberry be to start suckering ?
Thank You For Your Time. Jesse
I get decently strong callous and rooting from fat stems taken later winter, for us mid-March, with ideally sharpie thickness or close to, and ideally 6-8" long with a good heel to last years wood. With bottom heat and lean mix (perlite/sand) they callous and root strong for me, then are ready to set out in the garden come spring no problem.
They start sucking year 2-3 generally, and with root wounding they will shoot many more suckers for sure (sharp spade stuck in the soil or a hori hori probed here or there to knick roots in May).
Does sasha have recipes for seaberries ? I have goji berries but wont be able to eat or use them much myself because of the bloodthinners i am on....but other folks will enjoy them. Would luv a small 15 year old stand of locust trees......much better than pressure treated lumber !!!!
We're hoping to get her in more videos this season :)
How long would you say it takes for them to get established and start growing all over the place like that? I want to make an edible hedge on my property
They can take a bit to get up to speed and can be quite sluggish in year 1-3... But then they rip and are expansive to a scary degree
@@edibleacres Will you ever sell it on your website? I've been searching for seaberries in my area but I haven't had much luck
Some plants are princesses, and some plants are tomboys.
These are both!
@@edibleacres Best of both worlds then :)
Thank you very much for the nice video! Having seaberries has been my dream for a long time but unfortunately in my several attempts I have only had male plants in my garden. I checked the website which you mentioned for female plants but they are sold out - maybe someone can sell one or two female plants to me to start? Is it possible to get on a waiting list for them?
Thanks!

Elegant squish planting.
Just my style!
Sean, do you think would these be suitable for stream bank stabilization? Thanks.
Hmmm... Would be interesting to try, why not. If it is a full sun context they should do quite well, maybe mixed with cuttings of elders and willows, etc to add some resiliency and diversity of form?
Hi, will roots sent out shoots in a nursery if they are cut into a certain size?
I am testing that right now. I took a bunch that were just root segments and put them in my bottom heat propagator to see what they do. I've planted out just roots before with no shoots and they died, but not sure if that was my error or that they won't work that way. I'll share notes when I learn more.
Extremely easy to propagate but the plants are still really expensive to buy.
Hi thanks for the video. Do you need male and female plants for berries, thanks x
Yes. 1 male for every roughly 5-8 female plants, ideally planted upwind of the females since pollen floats on air.
@@edibleacres I have an area where I wild pick, but I might not always live here 😊
Will you have any Seaberry plants for sale in the future?
We hope to, check out perfectcircle.farm in the meantime :)
Hey Sean,
Does Seaberry tend to have non productive limbs on it- almost like part of the plant is dead, but then other parts of it have life and green leaves? Thanks
Definitely older/lower branches seem to die back over time. They seem to really respond well to renewal pruning.
Are these a thorn or thornless variety?
Most every variety has thorns to some extent. Some varieties we grow are low thorny-ness.
Sean, what time of year was this?
I believe this was early spring, maybe like April 2020?
Ha! I am the 1st to comment! Nice videos man!
Congrats! :)
Make sure you water those in so they don't dry out hahaha🤣
Hi Sean. I was just doing some spring pruning in my yard and I found a sassafras seedling that a transplanted last summer. I’m curious how you would use that native plant in your food forest
I haven't worked with them, but as a shade tolerant understory tree they seem exciting to design with.
EdibleAcres I agree. I will experiment this year. My goal is to get it to grow in a shaded dead zone on a raised mound, and for it to help build a privacy thicket. I’m hoping if it fills out, that I could begin harvesting roots for a fresh, native spice
Will you get both male and female shoots or are they true carbon copires of the original plant
True copies from the parent, so it will be the exact properties of who they came from.
Do you like to eat the seaberries?
LOVE!

Are you a hunter?
Once in a while, but not often. The jacket I got 10 years ago and have been amazed how well it has held up. It's almost stiff from the dirt but you can't see it :)
What is the Bioactive ingredient to decrease the inflammation caused by arthritis? SeabuckthornIran1 is my Instagram
I would buy a small root ratio seaberry like that. How much you want for it? You're gonna be stingy, and keep them for yourself ain't ya? Hahaa
We're hoping to have some numbers for the fall so we can offer em up! :) For now I'm planting as many as we can!
@@edibleacres, watching this video, I went out and checked my seaberry that was planted last year from bare root. We had 4. The grasshoppers decimated everyrhing last year, but one seaberry is putting on fresh wood. I peeled back the mulch to peek, and I'm pretty sure we have a sucker coming up. We have ours in nursery in the garden like yours.
Gentle whispers? Talk to us about that please.
Shhhh... :)
Hi
you diggin the bed is proper soil porn. your beds are so loose! jah bless!
Ha!
What do I want to do with Seaberry? How do I prepare it? It looks like a truly invasive plant. Can I plant it in my recently opened up woods to beat out the sticker bushes?
KRoseVideo check out some of Ben Falks videos on sea berries from an edible angle. As far as the sticker bushes, try it in a small way and see what happens. I’m guessing the answer is it depends! Your climate, what type of sticker bushes, etc. good luck.
