Berberis thunbergii 'Red Carpet'
Red Carpet Japanese Barberry
The low spreading Red Carpet Barberry is wider than it is tall, with bright orange new growth in the spring and tiny yellow flowers. As summer nears the foliage turns burgundy followed by bright red berries in the fall that last long after the leaves have dropped, providing a nice pop of color into the winter. Plant in full sun for best color.
