Russian Olive - Elaeagnus angustifolia - €16 per plant
Oleaster with its silvery foliage,stems and yellow fruits in October makes a very attractive plant. Like all the plants in this genus, Oleaster has Nitrogen Fixing capabilities and when planted with fruit trees is said to increase the overall yield of the orchard by 10% whilst themselves producing a yield of berries. We have used this plant as an understory shrub on a south facing edge in our forest garden and to take advantage of its drought tolerance, in a dry bed on the outside of the property.
