A fairy tale about sea buckthorn

A real fairy tale about love.

I used to collect wild small sea buckthorn. But in the nineties, cultivated sea buckthorn seedlings were brought to the market. I bought two varieties, yellow and orange. The orange took root very quickly, the yellow one died.

I started reading articles about sea buckthorn. Subtracted that for fruiting, sea buckthorn also needs a male plant for pollination. He also got hold of a wild husband for his cultured princess. And the process started.

And they had a very stormy love. Sea buckthorn proved to be fertile not only for berries. Here and there, new plants began to grow and everything was female. But our savage managed to do his job with everyone (male duties).

But they forced us to leave the free area.

Once the son asked to get his mother sea buckthorn. And then on their site lives a lonely boy of sea buckthorn blood. And he asks to send matchmakers to that free field, about which he was told. I had to go myself. Having found a suitable bride, he asked for forgiveness and dug it up. Wrapped in a cellophane bag. And then he took him to the far-off kingdom. And a year later they had their first berries.
