Family:  Berberidaceae
Author:  Hemsl.&Wils.
 
Known Hazards:  None known
 
Mature Height:  1   Mature Width:  2
 
Habitat:  Not known



Cultivation Notes:  Prefers a warm moist loamy soil but it is by no means fastidious, succeeding in thin, dry and shallow soils[11, 200]. Grows well in heavy clay soils. Succeeds in full sun or light shade[11, 200]. Hybridizes freely with other members of this genus, especially the closely related B. aggregata[11, 200]. The true species is seldom seen in cultivation, having been replaced with its hybrid progeny[182]. There are some named forms, selected for their ornamental value[11]. Plants can be pruned back quite severely, they resprout well from the base[200]. This species is notably resistant to honey fungus[200].
