Beautiful Flowering Shrubs 



This shrub should be given some shelter and a specially 

 sunny outlook. 



The Barberry belongs to the small and unimportant 

 family Berberidacece. It is said that the name Barberry 

 is a corruption of " Amyrberis," by which term the 

 Arabian physicians of the twelfth century knew the 

 Common Barberry. 



Soil and Cultivation. Barberries, while preferring 

 a warm loam, grow readily in most soil. They are 

 readily propagated from seed ; cuttings of ripened wood 

 must be raised in a cold frame. These shrubs also 

 lend themselves to division.
