Berberis julianae hedging, or the Wintergreen Barberry, makes a wonderful intruder proof barrier as sitting beneath the slender, evergreen foliage sit long, strong thorns. With clusters of small, clear yellow flowers and dark blue fruits in the autumn, this evergreen Berberis makes a fantastic garden hedge.

How to Care for the Plant
Water
Water well until established.
Pruning
Little or no pruning is necessary unless the shrub has outgrown its allotted size. If so, evergreens can be pruned back immediately after flowering to keep their natural shape. Remove any dead or damaged wood from deciduous species in summer.
Fertilizer
Feed young or heavily pruned shrubs annually, in the spring, with a balanced fertiliser.
