Berberis thunbergii 'Tiny Gold'

In the spring, a bright splash of gold foliage emerges before turning lime-green by midsummer. Berberis thunbergii 'Tiny Gold' makes a colourful statement at the front of borders, where its bright foliage contrasts with darker-leaved plants. As summer draws to a close, this compact, deciduous shrub transforms into vibrant shades of red, extending the season of interest well into autumn. Despite being grown for its foliage, the small, yellow spring flowers of this Barberry provide a valuable food source for pollinating insects. Height and spread: 50cm (19)
