Berberis Rosy Glow is a very easy going shrub that will do well in any situation or soil. It's one of the more attractive barberries with small, rounded, reddish-purple leaves marbled with pink and white. It is dense, with a rounded shape, and loads of spines to act as a barrier to any intruders into the garden. Good choice for an informal hedge and where the bright foliage colour is needed to liven up an area.
Tiny, pale yellow flowers appear in mid-late spring, but are insignificant in comparison to the foliage. They are followed by an abundant crop of bright red berries in the fall, which are attractive to birds and often remain on the spiny stems after the leaves have fallen, therefore extending the season of interest of this ornamental shrub through the winter.
Flowering: Spring [October - November]
Fruiting: Autumn [March - May]
