Description
The SOUTHERN LIVING Orange Rocket Barberry boasts a distinctive and award-winning palette of colors throughout the seasons. In spring, its foliage emerges in a stunning coral-orange hue, gradually transitioning to purple and eventually adopting a lush green for the summer months. Come fall, the deciduous leaves take on a vibrant ruby red that enlivens any landscape. Additionally, each leaf cluster features small, thorn-like spiny branches which, in autumn, yield crimson red berries, providing a treat for local birds. Not only aesthetically pleasing, the Orange Rocket Barberry also offers the practical benefits of being drought-tolerant and highly resistant to disease. Characterized by its columnar growth habit, it typically reaches a manageable size of 2-3 ft. in width and 4-5 ft. in height. This makes it a versatile choice for adding a compact, vertical element to mixed gardens or container arrangements. Whether placed as a stand-alone specimen or nestled among other plants, the dazzling foliage of the Southern Living Orange Rocket Barberry is sure to captivate and brighten your outdoor space.
