Barberry with potential

12 years ago

Its alive! I had to dig this in August last year and baby it through the fall, but it made it. I think its got great potential. Its in a 14" pot and about 2' tall. I will post more pics as I get it cleaned up and trained.

Great score! They're hard to wire because they're so brittle ..... and picky as a porcupine. I got one from my credit union when they relandscaped that had been in the ground since the CU was built in 1968. Sorry I don't have a better picture, but this is it while over-wintering. The only reason I took the picture was to show someone the box it's in.
