Common Name: Barberry
Latin Name: Berberis x ottawensis f. purpurea 'Superba'
Soil: Well-drained soil
Position: Full sun or partial shade
Flowering period/colour: Spring/ Yellow-orange flowers.
Hardiness: Fully hardy
Eventual height/spread: 2m/2m
Special features: Beetroot red leaves and pretty orange-yellow flowers in spring.
The 'Superba' is an all-round great shrub which features stunning beetroot red leaves that start out bronze and turn to a brighter red colour in autumn. Small and glossy berries also appear in autumn and these are popular with wildlife. This deciduous barberry grows to be vigorous and the spiny branches arch over with age. This shrub is perfect for planting as a contrast plant against green-leaved forms of barberry like the ‘Starburst’ and works really well as a low-maintenance hedge.
