Paliurus ramosissimus - Thorny Wingnut, Mongolian Buckthorn - 5 FRESH SEEDS


  • This is a very rare species in Europe, native to Asia, and relative of the P spina-christi, but with somewhat larger leaves but smaller fruits. It forms a deciduous shrub with zig-zagged shoots. The glossy, green leaves of Paliurus ramosissimus  turn a spectacular yellow in Autumn, just like its relative. Small yellow flowers appear on the branches in Spring, followed by a dry nutlet that is centred in a circular wing (it is edible raw).

  • Thorny Wingnut branches out freely, suitable for any garden with a sunny aspect, for the patio or for bonsai too. It develops numerous sharp thorns which makes it suitable to use it as an impenetrable hedge. Fully hardy, prefers full sun.

  • This listing is for 5 freshly collected fruits with viable seeds.
