Tamarix Africana, 
Hardy Ornamental Hedge Plants 
Berbexis Thunberg'i Atropurpuxea (New Red-Leaved Barberry). A highly important 
introduction among shrubs, giving us for the first time a practical, easily grown shrub 
of medium height, with good distinctly red foliage. This must prove a boon to all types 
of landscaping, where studied contrasts are to be worked out with the shrub foliage de¬ 
pended on for colors. Atropurpurea is an exact reproduction of Thunbergi in every way— 
habit, leaf-formation and fruiting; but, whereas the original is a deep green from spring 
until fall, this variety starts oft’ in its first foliage a warm bronzy red; the heat of summer 
intensifying its richness. The abundant scarlet berries persist throughout winter along 
the dense network of spiny twigs. A sunny exposure is necessary to bring out and retain 
its full red color.
