Seaberry saltbush (Chenopodium candolleanum, Rhagodia candolleana)
Product Details
Evergreen sprawling shrub to 1.5 m high and 1.5 m wide or larger. Can climb over other
plants so prune regularly to avoid this. Can be used as a loose hedge. A mostly coastal
plant which grows in full sun or part shade.
- Red berries ripen to dark red-purple from summer to autumn and are sweet with a
- bitter middle around the seed. To enjoy fruit, place in your mouth and gently dissolve the
- sweet flesh, spitting out the bitter middle section.
- Leaves can be eaten cooked.
- Fruit and raw leaf tips have anti-viral properties.
The plant is supplied in a black tube pot.
