Japanese Barberry (Berberis thunbergii ‘Tiny Gold’)

Description

Japanese barberry is an invasive shrub native to Asia, known for its small, red berries and thorny branches. It typically grows in a range of habitats, including forests and disturbed areas, and can alter ecosystems by outcompeting native plants. Its bright yellow to orange fall foliage adds aesthetic value, but its invasive nature poses challenges to biodiversity.
