Berberis thunbergii 'Kobold'
Japanese barberry
The Berberis thunbergii 'Kobold' is a dwarf Barberry plant that is particularly compact. In late spring the plant grows small, pale lemon yellow flowers and has a dark green foliage. This deciduous Berberis is at its finest from late summer when it bears plenty of glossy scarlet berries, just before the foliage turns to brilliant shades of orange.
