(Schizandra chinensis) This lovely fruiting vine comes to us from the mountains of China and the Russian far east. It does well in moist shady places where few fruit plants thrive but it will also grow in full sun. It produces large clusters of round red fruit. The leaves have a lemon scent. The fruit is acidic and very aromatic. They are dried and used in medicinal teas. Or, sweetened, the fruits are used to make a juice or preserves that is said to be stimulating and energy restoring. Grow on a trellis, arbor or similar structure. The fragrant white flowers are self-fertile and fruits should begin to appear in about three years. USDA Zones 4-8.

Size: 1 Gallon Pot

It's thriving and happy in pine shade.

I have a shaded section under pine trees that is always a challenge for planting but it's an interesting quest to find what will be happy. In that section of my garden, I get them established then it's adapt or...well you know. I always look for unusual plants when I came across the Eastern Prince. Asian origin plants seem to love my northern CT backyard. The Eastern Prince fit that and it also has flowers and berries. So, I planted the Eastern Prince hoping it wouldn't mind being a little drier under the pines. Much to my surprise, this spring, it has grown and it seems happy. I am so pleased, that I am going to get another one.
