Berberis thunbergii 'Orange Ice' - Japanese Barberry

This stunning deciduous barberry brings a burst of warm colour to the garden with its uniquely variegated foliage in shades of orange, coral, cream, and soft pink. Compact and easy to grow, it creates a vibrant focal point throughout the growing season.

Growing Tips

Plant in any well-drained soil in full sun for the most vibrant leaf colours. Tolerates partial shade but variegation will be less pronounced. Drought-tolerant once established. Prune lightly after flowering to maintain shape. Wear gloves when handling.

Looks Great With
