About This Product

Barberry is highly prized for its brilliant leaf color, which ranges from deep burgundy to gold depending on the cultivar. This tough, low-maintenance shrub thrives in full sun and is exceptionally drought-tolerant once established. Its dense, thorny habit makes it an excellent choice for a security hedge or a structured accent in a landscape.
