Product description
Berberis Golden Ring is a deciduous shrub that has rounded foliage of purple colouring in Spring, which is joined by yellow flowers in the same season. Summer sees purple and yellow come together in the foliage, with red coming to the fore in Autumn to add an eye-catching look to the shrub. You should plant it in moist, well-drained soil and have it placed in full sun for the most-part. After planting, watering should be done thoroughly for a period of time, whilst you ensure watering is carried out to a good level in the Summer months. The key to caring for this plant is to ensure the soil is moist, but not water-logged.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Instructions
Top Tip
Berbaris plants are covered in spines, so always protect yourself with gloves and long sleeves when tending them.
How to Water
Water generously and regularly for the first growing season. After this, berbaris is relatively drought tolerant and only needs to be watered during particularly dry spells.
How to Plant
Berberis grows well in most moist but well-draining soil types and thrives in full sun or partial shade. Prepare the ground, digging in some garden compost and position the plant in the hole before backfilling and watering in well.
