If you're looking to add a pop of fiery color and texture to your landscape, this little gem is a must-have. Imagine these dazzling, reddish-orange leaves creating a stunning contrast in your garden – it's like having a constant autumnal display!
The Cherry Bomb Barberry maintains a compact size, typically reaching 2 feet both in height and width, making it ideal for borders, containers, or even as a striking single specimen. Happily, it thrives in full sun, and those bright Arizona days are just what it loves! And here's a bonus for those of us who share our gardens with the local wildlife – barberries are generally considered deer-resistant.
To give your Cherry Bomb Barberry the best possible start and keep it looking its best, incorporate Watters 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food into the soil when planting. Then, top it off with a layer of Watters Premium Mulch to help retain moisture and suppress those pesky weeds. You'll find this low-maintenance shrub brings year-round interest to your yard!
