<p>Siberian Ginseng plant - current height: 15-20 cm</p> <p><meta charset="utf-8"> [Picture of plant coming soon]</p> <p> Now this long-awaited plant has finally arrived in stock! After many requests, we have finally managed to get hold of a couple of plants, they are neither cheap nor easy to get hold of - hence the price.</p> <p> I aim to bring in larger plants during the season, they will be around 2-3m and cost around 2000kr in store - so more value for money. Those of you who are interested in these plants are welcome to contact me so we know how many to order.</p> <p> <strong>Common Names:</strong> Russian Root, Siberian Ginseng, Eleuthero, Kan Jang, Tiger Root<br> <strong>Scientific name:</strong> <em>Eleutherococcus senticosus</em><br> <strong>Family:</strong> Araliaceae</p> <h4> <strong><span>Plant history &amp; use:</span></strong> </h4> <p> Siberian Ginseng, or Russian root as it is also called, is a frost-resistant "Ginseng species" that is part of the same family as Korean Ginseng.<meta charset="utf-8"> ( <em>Panax ginseng)</em> and American Ginseng <meta charset="utf-8">( <em>Panax quinquefolius</em> ). It is not related to <span style="color: #4e991d;"><strong><a style="color: #4e991d;" title="Indian Ginseng / Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera)" href="https://tradgardsdags.nu/collections/froavdelning/products/ashwagandha-indisk-ginseng-withania-somnifera" target="_blank">Indian Ginseng</a></strong></span> .</p> <p> From this Ginseng, it is the root bark that is used for its adaptogenic properties. Adaptogens are called substances that help the body deal with different types of stress. Siberian Ginseng is well known among athletes and is also used to treat insomnia. Traditionally used in Russian/Chinese folk medicine.</p> <p> Much of the Siberian Ginseng on the market is whole, ground roots, when in fact it is only the bark from the roots that contains the active ingredients. Here, of course, it is advantageous to grow it yourself as you control the entire process on your own.</p> <h4> <strong>Cultivation</strong> :</h4> <p>Siberian Ginseng is a shrub native to Northeast Asia that often grows in forests as undergrowth or forms dense thickets. The shrub is thorny and can grow up to 4 meters depending on the location.</p> <p> It thrives well outdoors in Sweden and does not have particularly high requirements. In terms of soil, it can handle everything from sandy to heavy clay soils. However, it thrives best in soil mixed with leaf and compost. It prefers light to partial shade. Can also be grown in a pot.</p> <p> To harvest, you cut off one or more of the plant's underground shoots and let the plant grow. Peel the bark from the root and compost/discard the wood inside the bark.<br></p> <p> It is a robust species with few known pests.</p> <p> The flowers turn yellowish-white/purple which then form black round fruits in clusters.</p> <h4> <strong>Features</strong> :</h4> <p> Year: Perennial<br> Growing position: partial shade/sun<br> Height: 2-4 m<br> Germination time: 2-4 months<br> Growing zone: 1-7</p>

<p data-mce-fragment="1"> <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Garden Book of the Year 2018</strong></span></p> <p data-mce-fragment="1">Do you dream of a flamboyant garden, bursting with healthy vegetables and goodies from early spring to late autumn? A garden where you can hear birds chirping and insects buzzing, a garden that only gets more fertile, more beautiful and more self-sustaining every year? A good-for-the-planet garden that captures, stores and transforms lots of carbon dioxide into fertile soil teeming with life? </p> <p data-mce-fragment="1">That dream can come true if you dare to venture into the world of forest gardening! A forest garden is a garden or cultivation where you take inspiration from the forest to produce food and useful plants in nature's own way. You can actually say that you are creating your own ecosystem! It's much more fun, easier and more efficient than constantly fighting back with lawnmowers, environmental toxins and weeding.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1">This book gives you, in a simple and easy-to-understand way, everything you need to become a forest gardener. It contains plant portraits of over 350 hardy nut and fruit trees, berry bushes, climbers, perennial vegetables, ground covers and other supportive plants that help your favorite plants thrive. In the book you will also find, among many other things, information on how to find the right place for your forest garden, what you need to do to get strong, independent plants, how to attract useful helpers and how to best take care of the harvest . With its over 800 references to books, reports and research on the subject, the book stands on a solid scientific basis and makes it easy for the reader who wants to delve further into this exciting cultivation technique.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1">Skogsträdgården is written by Philipp Weiss, the author behind Skogsträdgårdsblog, and Annevi Sjöberg, environmental scientist with a burning heart for ecology and all forms of berries. The authors have many years of experience in forest horticulture and hold popular courses on the subject. They have created about ten forest gardens around the country, and wrote the acclaimed book "Perennial vegetables: discover, grow, enjoy" which was nominated for the Garden Book of the Year 2016. Then as now, Daniel Larsson, who runs the cooperative farm Mylla on a daily basis, is responsible for the design.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1"></p> <table id="ctl00_ctl00_m_m_ctl02_gv" border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" class="infoTable" rules="all"> <caption>Facts</caption> <tbody> <tr class="infoRow"> <td style="width: 140px;" data-mce-style="width: 140px;">Format<br> </td> <td style="width: 380px;" data-mce-style="width: 380px;">Bound</td> </tr> <tr class="infoAltRow"> <td style="width: 140px;" data-mce-style="width: 140px;">Publishers</td> <td style="width: 380px;" data-mce-style="width: 380px;">Hälsingbo Forest Garden HB</td> </tr> <tr class="infoRow"> <td style="width: 140px;" data-mce-style="width: 140px;">Released</td> <td style="width: 380px;" data-mce-style="width: 380px;">20180520</td> </tr> <tr class="infoAltRow"> <td style="width: 140px;" data-mce-style="width: 140px;">Page count</td> <td style="width: 380px;" data-mce-style="width: 380px;">464</td> </tr> <tr class="infoRow"> <td style="width: 140px;" data-mce-style="width: 140px;">Language</td> <td style="width: 380px;" data-mce-style="width: 380px;">Swedish</td> </tr> <tr class="infoAltRow"> <td style="width: 140px;" data-mce-style="width: 140px;">ISBN<br> </td> <td style="width: 380px;" data-mce-style="width: 380px;">9789163932502</td> </tr> <tr class="infoRow"> <td style="width: 140px;" data-mce-style="width: 140px;">Dimensions<br> </td> <td style="width: 380px;" data-mce-style="width: 380px;">287 x 225 x 43 mm</td> </tr> <tr class="infoRow"> <td style="width: 140px;" data-mce-style="width: 140px;">Weight</td> <td style="width: 380px;" data-mce-style="width: 380px;">2056 g </td> </tr> </tbody> </table>

The berries keep their shape for several days in the fridge after harvesting.</span></p> <p data-mce-fragment="1"><span data-mce-fragment="1">The black raspberry has also been called the "King of Berries" due to its reputed health benefits. The berries contain high levels of antioxidants and also anthocyanins (the group of substances that give fruits and vegetables their dark color - blue/purple/black) which have an anti-inflammatory effect and are also linked to processes in the body in the form of improved memory and increased eyesight .</span></p> <p data-mce-fragment="1"><span data-mce-fragment="1">The variety 'Black Jewel' has berries with a high sweetness and a pleasant aftertaste that remains after the berries have been eaten.

The black mulberry tree, like the white variety,</span> <a title="White mulberry (Morus alba)" href="https://tradgardsdags.nu/products/vitt-mullbar-morus-alba" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://tradgardsdags.nu/products/vitt-mullbar-morus-alba"><strong data-mce-fragment="1"><span style="color: #4e991d;" data-mce-fragment="1" data-mce-style="color: #4e991d;">Morus alba</span></strong></a> <span data-mce-fragment="1">, originates from Western Asia - on the other hand, the black mulberry tree came to Europe a couple of hundred years before the white one. The first findings of knowledge of the black mulberry tree were already around 300 BC. It could possibly be that Morus nigra originates slightly further to the south-west (closer to Europe) in West Asia than its relative Morus alba, and that this is why Morus nigra also has a slightly poorer hardiness in cold climates than its relative.</span></p> <p data-mce-fragment="1"><span data-mce-fragment="1">Traditionally, the black mulberry was used to make wine and make-up - thanks to its high concentration of anthocyanins which give the berry its deep dark colour. But the berries were also grown for fresh consumption.</span></p> <p data-mce-fragment="1"><span data-mce-fragment="1">Unlike the fruits of the white mulberry tree which can vary in color, the fruits of the black mulberry tree are always black when ripe. The black mulberry is also more acidic.</span></p> <p data-mce-fragment="1">The berries are rich in antioxidants and, like mulberry leaf tea, are thought to help balance blood sugar levels. This is thanks to <span data-mce-fragment="1">the content of the substance MFE, which stabilizes the blood sugar level and thus suppresses the body's sweet tooth. Therefore, mulberries are a common substitute for those who want to get rid of their sweet tooth.</span></p> <p data-mce-fragment="1">Due to the berry's unusually high nutritional content, mulberry, like <a title="Goji (Lycium barbarum)" href="https://tradgardsdags.nu/collections/froavdelning/products/gojibar-bocktorne-lycium-barbarum" data-mce-fragment="1" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://tradgardsdags.nu/collections/froavdelning/products/gojibar-bocktorne-lycium-barbarum"><strong data-mce-fragment="1"><span style="color: #4e991d;" data-mce-fragment="1" data-mce-style="color: #4e991d;">the goji berry</span></strong></a> , is considered a so-called "superfood".</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1">In addition to mulberry wine, you can also make juice and jam from the berries.<br></p> <h4 data-mce-fragment="1"><strong data-mce-fragment="1">Cultivation:</strong></h4> <p data-mce-fragment="1">Withstands temperatures down to -25 <span data-mce-fragment="1">°</span> <span data-mce-fragment="1">C.</span> The tree can grow in most soils but thrives best in loose, nutrient-rich soils.
