Concorde Barberry

The Concorde Barberry is the perfect small shrub to bring bright reds and purples to those smaller spaces in your garden. Growing between 18 and 24 inches tall, and the same across, it makes a dense mound of branches covered in small, round leaves, that begin the year red in spring, turn deep red-purple all summer, and then become bright red in fall. Bright yellow flowers add an extra touch in spring. Its smaller size makes this bush ideal for edging, foreground groups in beds, or as a permanent colorful shrub in your planter boxes and containers. You can rest easy too about the negative effect of this barberry on the environment, because it produces almost no seeds, and it has been approved after years of research as a safe variety to grow.

• Perfect small, dense mound of dense purple leaves
• Turns brighter purple-red in fall
• No seeds, so non-invasive and safe to grow
• Yellow flowers in spring
• Great choice for planters and containers too

The Concorde Barberry grows almost everywhere, from zone 4 to zone 8. Plant it in a sunny or partially-shaded area, in any kind of soil that is not constantly wet. Once established it is very drought resistant, so it’s ideal for those hot, dry spots, and even for xeric, low-water gardening. Tough, easy to grow, pest, disease and deer resistant, you will find so many uses for this colorful little shrub around your garden that you will wonder how you ever lived without it.
