Hippophae salicifolia is a medium-sized, thorny tree that can reach heights of up to 15 meters. This species is notable for its ability to fix nitrogen in the soil, enhancing nutrient availability in less fertile conditions. The leaves are slender and exhibit a silver-green hue, transitioning to pale yellow as autumn approaches. In spring, the tree produces small, unobtrusive flowers, which can develop into orange berries in the fall if a male plant is present nearby.

Hippophae salicifolia 'Streetwise' is a medium-sized tree, reaching heights of up to 12 meters, featuring a slender shape that makes it suitable for limited spaces and urban environments. This species has the ability to fix nitrogen in its roots, enhancing soil quality, particularly in nutrient-poor conditions. Its narrow, silver-green leaves are deciduous and transition to a pale yellow in the fall. In spring, it produces subtle flowers that can develop into orange berries in autumn, provided a male plant is nearby for pollination.

Hippophae sinensis is a rapidly growing, thorny deciduous shrub or small tree that can attain a height of around 8 meters with a similar width. Its narrow, silvery-green foliage transitions to a light yellow in the autumn before it drops. Before the leaves appear, clusters of stalkless golden-brown flowers emerge. Female plants will produce orange-yellow berries, provided that a male plant is nearby for pollination.
