The research reported here aims to characterise and compare different planting methods in terms of which would be more successful for achieving the regeneration of dwarf fleshy-fruited shrubs on abandoned peat mines. Three planting methods were undertaken, namely: a) placing scat fragments on the mire surface in the field, and planting out seedlings as vegetative clumps begun in a greenhouse from b) seeds contained in scat fragments, and c) seeds derived from berries. Success was measured on the basis of survival and growth of vegetative clumps.
