This handsome barberry has purple foliage, with each leaf finely edged with gold.

The leaves themselves are small, rounded and matt. There are orange-yellow flowers in spring, red fruits and blazing colour in autumn.

This variety is a good spreading shrub and provides a fine backdrop for a range of colours in both herbaceous and shrub plantings.
