Description
Berberis Thunbergii 'Red Chief' is a deciduous, vigorous shrub with a spreading growth habit. It features narrow, deep purple leaves that grow from purple stems. In spring, it produces delicate pale yellow flowers with pink-tinged lobes. As autumn approaches, the leaves turn a striking scarlet red, followed by deep red berries that attract birds. 'Red Chief' is an easy-to-grow shrub, ideal for bringing vibrant color to flower beds while encouraging wildlife to visit the garden.
