Understanding Plant Options
Nature Hills offers plants in two main formats:
- Container Plants: Grown in pots with soil, sized by container volume and plant age
- Bare Root Plants: Dormant plants without soil, sized by height measurements
Container Plant Sizes

This colorful cutie from Proven Winners® brings vibrancy and joy to gardens all year long! With dark orange foliage, Sunjoy® Cinnamon Barberry PP#24,586 (Berberis thunbergii 'Celeste') adds a wonderful contrast to your garden!
This show-stopping shrub produces bright orange, red, and yellow-green foliage. It shows its deepest color in the heat of summer, but you can see hints of its oranges and reds once spring arrives, and your pollinators will enjoy the many little yellow blossoms that appear. Small oval leaves sprout from compact branches and fill in from crown to the ground!
Hardy throughout USDA planting zones 4 to 8, this Proven Winners® shrub can grow into a dense ball 4-5 feet tall and wide! Barberry is known for its ability to do well in cities and its tolerance to urban pollution, so it's a perfect plant for commercial property owners, too!
Landscape Application:
This is a breathtaking specimen plant or can be used behind deep purples, mellow yellows, and bright green partner plants. Use as a foundation planting, or as a hedge for privacy and screening! Sunjoy® Cinnamon under windows without blocking your view but will add a layer of security around first-story windows!
Gardens in deer country appreciate this plant's resistance to deer. Many people plant this shrub as a barrier plant to discourage deer from rummaging through their garden beds. But you can also use this shrub to deter wayward foot traffic and even trespassers!
Cinnamon also looks wonderful next to stone or cement, and goes with about any color of home siding! So, consider lining your driveway, or along a fence line. Or, create a beautiful Japanese Garden with Sunjoy® Cinnamon Barberry as a carefully placed shot of color!
- Excellent Orange & Red Foliage
- Small Yellow Flowers In Spring Bring Pollinators Galore
- Great Fall Color!
- Fall Berries For Birds
- Great Barrier Plant, Screening, Hedges & Colorful En Masse
#ProPlantTips for Care:
For the best color, plant these deciduous shrubs in full sun. But in hotter climates, they appreciate a touch of afternoon shade. Japanese Barberry grows well in well-drained, medium-moisture soil in full sun and thrives once established. You can prune this pretty plant to help it keep its shape or allow it to grow into a natural shape. Blooming on old wood, it is recommended that you prune Barberry after they flower. A generous 3-4 inches of arborist mulch over the roots helps retain soil moisture as well as insulate the root system from heat and chill all season long.
While it is true that while some Barberry cultivars are invasive in some areas, they may not be invasive in all areas. So Nature Hills protects your environment and has taken the initiative to develop our own compliance company called Plant Sentry™ so that you will not be able to even purchase a plant that your state has prohibited because of invasiveness, insects, or disease.
We have a full-time compliance officer who keeps those restrictions for all states current and up to date at all times. We are the only nursery selling plants online that is fully compliant according to each state's rules. Find out if we can ship to you - just enter your zip code above the Plant Highlights section of this p>roduct page.
