Elaeagnus angustifolia
Russian olive
Elaeagnus angustifolia is a deciduous, thorny tree with a broad, open head, reaching 5 to 7 metres in height and 4 to 6 metres across. It is very cold-hardy, and the spiny branches make it useful in stock-proof boundaries and in shelter planting.

About sizes
CLT is a container volume in litres, VRL the same in a decorative red container. M is a field-grown plant lifted with its root ball, MGR the same grown in isolation and wire-balled. RN is bare root, available in the dormant season. T is a full standard and POT a planter. Heights are given as a range in centimetres; trunk girth is the circumference measured at one metre. A larger container is not always dearer: a trained or grafted form of the same volume costs more than a bush, and the form is named on the row.
