An Ramhdhraighean
Fásann an ramhdhraighean in áiteanna ísle agus tá sé cuibheasach gann. Toimín nó crann beag deilgneach atá ann. Bíonn bláthanna glasbhuí ina gcnuasaigh air i mí na Bealtaine. Aibíonn na caora ó ghlas go dubh san fhómhar. Bíonn cuma beann ruaphoic ar chraobhacha an ramhdhraighin agus b’fhéidir gurb é sin an fáth a thugtar ‘Buckthorn’ orthu sa Bhéarla.
Buckthorn
Native to low-lying areas, buckthorn is rather scarce. It forms a thorny bush or small tree. Clusters of greenish yellow flowers appear in May. Autumn berries ripen from green to black. Buckthorn branches resemble roebucks’ antlers, which may be the origin of the name.
