Harvest Monday in Tyra’s garden - Tomatoes, blackberries and Sea-buckthorn.
Harvest of my Sea-buckthorn
I planted my Sea-buckthorn bushes a few years ago, three Juliet (female) and one Romeo (male plant) and this is my first harvest ever! This amazing power-food-berry has a fantastic exotic taste and of all the berries of the earth Sea buckthorn is probably that one berry that contains most vitamins in large quantities.

This is what Wikipedia says about Sea-buckthorn berries - The fruit of the plant has a high vitamin C content—in a range of 114 to 1550 mg per 100 grams with an average content (695 mg per 100 grams) about 12 times greater than Oranges— placing sea-buckthorn fruit among the most enriched plant sources of vitamin C[1]. The fruit also contains dense contents of carotenoids, vitamin E, amino acids, dietary minerals, β-sitosterol and polyphenolic acids.

Havtornsbären - Honplantorna producerar orangefärgade bär med en diameter av sex–nio millimeter, som är mjuka och saftiga och rika på C-vitamin (120 milligram C-vitamin per 100 gram bär, odlingsvärda sorter innehåller 300–1 300 milligram C-vitamin per 100 gram bär). En del sorter innehåller också mycket A-vitamin och E-vitamin. Av bären kan man bland annat göra saft. Havtorn är förmodligen det av alla jordens bär som innehåller flest vitaminer i stor mängd.
