The Gardener's Notepad
Popular selection from Holland. Used practically everywhere. Care should be exercised when choosing plants to purchase. There are fast growing purple barberry sold that, when young, look like the real thing. Grill the grower about that. If they're worth their salt they'll know exactly what you're referring to and have the legitimate cultivar.
