barberry

One of six divided from a bush collected at a friend's house last fall. Just selecting some branches and setting some structure today.

As purchased Feb. 2023: Repotted: Flowers, spring 2023: Current (just removed wires; rebuilding branches and growing out new leader section):

Ive been on the look out for a berberis for a while now but all the small ones i came across were multiple shoots coming up from the roots But today i was Lucky! Single trunk taper and hopefully some nice roots. Not the healthyest of the bunch but ill provide it with great care so i wil get...

A church near me was ripping out a parking lot and this big berberis was over on the cast off debris pile. It had been mostly covered in dirt, but I wrapped it in plastic and took it home. The few roots that were left looked fairly strong, so I potted it up an am keeping my fingers crossed that...

Just a little guessing game... it is bonsai related
