Limoncello™ Barberry

Berberis thunbergii 'BailErin'

Forming a tidy, round mound, Limoncello™ Barberry has chartreuse foliage with an unusual red, almost dotted pattern around the leaf margin through July. The fall foliage is equally spectacular with orange, yellow, and red leaves lighting up the landscape. The bright color and habit make it a great accent plant in foundation plantings.
