(New Red-Leaved Bar- 
berry). 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 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 network of spiny twigs. A 
sunny exposure is necessary to bring out and retain its full red color.
