Read detailed description :

A close variety to the Berberis thunbergii 'Rose Glow'. Its vegetation is denser, more compact and more erect, the variegated white and pink leaves are larger and branches spread more. Deciduous and robust plant, leaves are reddish purple in autumn, pink and white in spring, dimming in summer. They are a rounded oval shape of 1.5-3cm long on thorny branches. A lovely plant if isolated, in containers or in flowerbeds and low hedges, associated with low and colourful shrubs and perenials.
