Red-Leaved Barberry (Berberis Thunbergi Atropurpurea)

bright foliage the entire season. Rich, lustrous bronze-red, like the rich- 
est red-leaved maples—becoming more brilliant and gorgeous in sum- 
mer, changing to vivid orange-scarlet in autumn. A leaf coloring un- 
equaled by any shrub, is followed by brilliant scarlet berries all winter. 
To develop its high coloring at all seasons plant in full exposure to the 
sun. Adds distinction to any planting. Makes a perfect color companion, 
immune to rust and disease.

THORNLESS BERBERIS THUNBERGI 
(Patented) 
Here is something many gardeners have been looking for. A Bar- 
berry without thorns. Innumerable instances can be mentioned where 
this shrub would fit in perfectly because it does not prick you when 
coming in contact with it. In every other respect it is the same as the 

common Barberry, same fruit and brilliant foliage in autumn but no 
thorns.
