DWARF RED BARBERRY 
Crimson Pygmy | 
We obtained from Holland the miniature form 
of the Red-Leaved Barberry. Everyone who 
has seen it wants it because of its charm and 
delightful coloring of its foliage. The old 
leaves are bronzy blood-red while the new 
growth tips are several shades lighter, which | 
sparkle in the sunlight. Our oldest stock | 
plants, now several years old, measure 15 to 
18 inches in diameter and are about 12 inches 
high. Each one is a picture in itself. Indi- 
vidual plants are colorful and will make a fine 
showing in front of any shrub planting, in 
front of a house for instance. It is of slow 
growth and excellent as edging to walks or 
flower beds where it will be most attractive. 
Must be grown in full sun in order to obtain | 
the brilliant foliage color. If grown in shade | 
they will not color correctly. |

Thornless Barberry Showing Plant and Fruit 
She Shornless Barberry 
The Common Barberry Without Thorns 
Very often a hedge is desired for a dividing line or along the drive to the garage or specimen 
plants of Barberry are required in a mixed planting of shrubs. The common Barberry in such 
locations often is a nuisance because of its thorns. Our new Thornless Barberry should be 
used wherever the need of protection provided by the thorns of the common Barberry is not 
required, along private drives, walks near entryways where damage to clothes and particu- 
larly stockings is possible, use the Thornless Barberry. It is even more handsome in form 
and just as colorful in fall as the common Barberry. You will be proud of such a hedge. 
It will be easy to keep clean and it is handsome in fall as well as in summer.
