A unique and beautiful plant, Creeping Barberry may eventually find its way into mainstream nurseries as an excellent low groundcover for dry, shady areas. Until that day, come to us for the good stuff! Growing somewhat slowly, it creeps underground and aboveground to about 1-3 ft. tall and wider, eventually forming what would be a great place to hang out in if you were a Smurf. The very beautiful leaves are slightly spiky, though not enough to make Papa Smurf mad! Bright yellow flowers in Spring turn to dusty blue berries in the Summer, which are edible (also has many medicinal uses). In the Winter, even with our warm Winters, the leaves may change colors to rusty red or purple, making this a very interesting plant ALL YEAR! A long-lived plant, it also rocks in Full Sun in cooler areas and adapts well to seasonal changes of sun and shade. Low-water, prune it a few times a year when young for dense growth.
