Hardy Ornamental Hedge Plants 
Berberis Thunbergi Atropurpurea. (New Red-Leaved Barberry). A highly im¬ 
portant 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 depended on for colors. Atropurpurea is an exact repro¬ 
duction 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 off 
in its first foliage a warm bronzy red ; the heat of summer intensifying its richness. 
The abundant scarlet berries persist throughout the winter along the dense net¬ 
work of spiny twigs. A sunny exposure is necessary to bring out and retain its 
full red color.
