Berberis thunbergii 'Orange Ice'
Berberis thunbergii 'Orange Ice' is a compact, deciduous shrub celebrated for its dazzling foliage colour and tidy, mound-forming habit. In spring, fresh new leaves emerge in bright orange tones, maturing to golden-yellow through summer, and shifting to rich bronze in autumn. Small white flowers appear in late spring, followed by clusters of scarlet-red berries that attract birds and add ornamental value well into winter.
Perfect for adding colour and contrast to mixed borders, gravel gardens, or containers, ‘Orange Ice’ combines seasonal vibrancy with easy care. Its flowers support pollinators, while its berries provide food for birds. Hardy, low maintenance, and adaptable, it thrives in full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil, rewarding gardeners with year-round interest.
