Rose Glow Barberry

The Rose Glow Barberry, Berberis thunbergii 'Rose Glow', is that rare triple threat in your landscape. Its color, ease to grow and usefulness are unmatched.

This shrub is a show stopper for its stunning color. It has variegated leaves of purple, pink and rose shades. The more sun it gets, the more vibrant it appears, so choose your site accordingly. It can tolerate some shade but its color will be very different, tending toward green with pink and red accents. The sharp color stands out in the landscape even though it is deciduous, the leaves will fall off for the winter but the colors remain.

The Rose Glow Barberry is a breeze to grow, too. Once established, it is tough as nails - a foolproof plant to manage.

It can stand on its own as a beautiful specimen plant. It also makes a striking grouping when planting in drifts or as a hedge. It can be left to grow as a thorny shrub or pruned to tidy it up.

As beautiful as these Barberry's are, they hide a sharp little secret. Quarter-inch thorns line the branches - a painful surprise to trespassers when planted as a barrier hedge or under a window. They also provide protective cover for birds.

The Rose Glow Barberry will not disappoint when you add it to your landscape. Its color, ease and usefulness will serve you for many years.
