Dense, upright, fast growing, evergreen plant with long, glossy, heavily spined leaves, dark green above, pale green beneath. Masses of clusters of yellow, or sometimes red-tinged flowers wreath the shoots in spring followed by edible, bloomy, blue-black egg-shaped fruits in autumn which are attractive to wildlife. The flowers are nectar and pollen rich so are attractive to bees and other pollinating insects. Quickly forms an impenetrable hedge. Shade tolerant.

HEDGE Trim after flowering. For hedges 1.2 - 2.1m (4 - 7ft). Plant 45 - 60cm (1.5 - 2ft) apart.

SHRUB 3m x 3.4m (10ft x 11ft).

Pg = Pot Grown

Pot Grown Plants

These are normally sold in small 9cm wide pots, unless a different pot size is shown (where the pot size is shown in litres). Pot grown plants can be planted at any time of the year.

Availability

Pot Grown are generally available all year.

If a plant is currently out of stock because it is out of season (for example, bare rooted plants in summer) or we have sold out but we are expecting more to be available you can pre-order the plant. We only charge credit/debit cards when an order is despatched, not when an order is placed.

Planting Distances for planting as a Hedge

We recommend planting Berberis, Julianae in a single row between 45cm/18ins apart and 60cm/24ins apart:

Planting closer will mean the plants will grow together and form a hedge quicker, but requires more plants.

To calculate the number of plants needed for a length of hedging, click on Planting Distance Calculator above.

Planting Guide & RootGrow

We recommend planting with RootGrow. The recommended amount for RootGrow for an order will be shown in your shopping basket.

We will send out a planting guide with your order, you also can find a guide to planting here.

Pruning

Hedging - As a general rule, plants grown for hedging need pruning to encourage side branching. Usually the harder a plant is pruned the bushier it will be. If they are not pruned there is a danger that the hedges will be thin and bare at the base and that the tips of the plants will die back. If the plant is naturally bushy, less or sometimes no pruning will be needed to achieve a dense hedge.

Berberis, Julianae: Prune any straggly or untidy shoots, otherwise no immediate pruning is required.
