Berberis "Little Favourite"

Post by GavinG »

I grew this in the ground for a while, and kept hacking it back, and it just kept on looking ugly.....

Then I turned it around. Just didn't see the possibility until now.

Any update on this one Gavin? Hoping it's still alive and kicking?

It died from ?root rot - I've had others of the same variety go the same way. Possibly I need to bare-root them and put them into something very free-draining, but I've lost enthusiasm...

Sorry to be not-helpful,
