Sunjoy Todo Barberry is a dwarf mounding semi-evergreen shrub valued for its vibrant foliage that grows full to the ground. The small leaves emerge burgundy and deepen to near-black purple in the sun. Contrasting tiny yellow flowers bloom in fall that gives way to small amounts of red fruit. Best color in full sun and well-drained soils. Drought and deer resistant. Asexual propagation is prohibited.
