The Sunjoy® Citrus Barberry brings a beautiful splash of sunlight to your garden, with brilliant citrus-yellow leaves in spring. These resist sun-scorch, and they turn cooling chartreuse all summer and fall. This compact bush grows less than 3 feet tall and wide, making it ideal for smaller gardens, mass planting, edging and growing in pots. Wherever you need brightness and joy, this is the way to get it, on a hardy, cold and drought resistant plant that is very easy to grow and that needs no special care or trimming to stay neat and beautiful.
Grow the Sunjoy® Citrus Barberry in full sun, to keep the leaves yellow, and you won’t see any burning on them, unlike many other yellow-leaf forms. It thrives in any well-drained soil, and once established it is drought-resistant. Pest and disease free, immune to wheat rust, and not eaten by deer or rabbits, this plant is so easy to grow. It stays neat without trimming, although you can choose to trim for perfect domes of gold and the neatest hedges.
