Berberis thunbergii Electric Love' PBR

A Polish variety with a distinctive red leaf color and a compact columnar shape. It grows up to 1 meter high and 0.4 m wide. The color of the leaves is intensely red, fiery, and persists throughout the entire growing season. The flowers appear in May and are few in number, with red fruits when ripe. The plant requires a sunny position, which determines the proper color of the leaves. The variety is frost-resistant, suitable for cutting and regenerates easily. Due to the exceptionally expressive color of the leaves, which attracts attention from a distance, and the columnar shape, the shrubs work well both in home gardens and when grown in containers on balconies and terraces.
