BARBERRY [Berberis] 
JAPAN BARBERRY (Thunbergi). The 
ideal low hedge plant—hardy, tough, im¬ 
pervious ; of dense growth ; adapted to 
shearing. Daintily small and profuse foli¬ 
age, beautiful alike in summer greens and 
autumnal crimson. The plentiful racemes 
of red fruit are resplendent on winter-bared 
branches. It is customary to set the plants 
about 12 to 15 inches apart for a tight 
hedge, but 2 feet is close enough where in¬ 
dividual expression is desired.

RED LEAF BARBERRY (Atropurpurea). 
A brilliant accent shrub as solitary speci¬ 
men or in a close group amidst duller foli¬ 
age. An exact reproduction of Thunbergi 
in every respect except color; this variety 
starting off in its first foliage a warm 
bronzy red ; the heat of summer intensifying 
its red brilliancy ; autumn adding other tints 
to its richness. The abundant scarlet ber¬ 
ries persist throughout winter along the 
dense network of spiny twigs. A sunny 
exposure is necessary for color.
