| | | Alder Buckthorn (Rhamnus frangula) Alder Buckhorn is a large shrub with glossy green leaves that turn yellow, contrasting with red berries in the Autumn. It prefers damp, peaty sites, and unlike Purging or Common Buckthorn is thornless. Both Buckthorns are, however, the only foodplants of the Brimstone butterfly, which makes them an obligatory part of any butterfly garden.
It is a good hedging plant; put one in a hedge facing South or in any sheltered position and you will find yourself breeding Brimstones sooner rather than later. We included a 10 yard stretch of Buckthorn in a new section of hedge around our vegetable garden to do just this.
Provenance certificates are available on request for our Alder Buckthorn plants, which are from the Southwest of England.
Suppliers: Perrie Hale Forest Nursery

Orders for Alder Buckthorn placed between March and September are confirmed in October ready for dispatch from November.
