The Sunjoy Mini Maroon® Barberry is a new, sterile variety of purple-leaf barberry that grows into a compact bush between 2 and 3 feet tall and wide. It has rich leaf coloring that doesn’t green in summer, and stays purple all through fall. The neat, dense growth needs no trimming to always look great, so that’s more time for you to enjoy the sun in your garden, instead of doing yard work. Best of all, this variety is tested and proven to be virtually 100% sterile. It produces no seeds capable of germinating, so it can’t spread into nearby natural areas, causing environmental problems.
Full sun is best for the Sunjoy Mini Maroon® Barberry, to keep the leaf coloring rich and bright. It will grow in any well-drained soil, from sand to clay, and in urban soils too. Free of pests and diseases, untroubled by deer or rabbits, it doesn’t need trimming, but if you want a super-neat profile on a hedge, trim in early spring, before the new leaves sprout.
