Many species have very showy, axillary born flowers above fine foliage and ornamental, bright colored berries in autumn. Most species are easily grown in any humus-rich, well drained soil in partial shade to full sun.
Sow in autumn in any rich, well drained, sandy soil in pots outside. Most seeds of Berberis species require a cooling period for several months before they will germinate in late spring. Transplant in autumn or late spring.
All are USDA Climate Zone 6.
