Southern Living Plant Collection Orange Rocket Barberry (2 Gallon) Deciduous Shrub with Unique Foliage - Full Sun to Part Shade Live Outdoor Plant

Last year, after transplanting, the bush "thought". I was very sad that the bright coloring became pale. However, after being wrapped in an emergency blanket and paint canvas (the frosts in Houston were very brutal), the bush not only survived, but also returned to its amazing color. Gold Pillar Barberry and Sunjoy Mini Maroon Barberry by Proven Winners feel the same way. Our alpine hill looks great thanks to the brightness of the barberries. Thanks also to Amazon for fast delivery and quality.

So far so good. Was shipped well packaged and delivered with care. Pending to see how plant grows and holds up.

I bought a total of 8 plants on April 21&27. Planted carefully with care. All have been losing leaves and drooping immediately after planting. There is little growth and several slim branches are completely dried up. The plant are 50% size from original size and are barely surviving. They are watered properly, receive full sun, have good soil. But, looks like that they will die soon. I see looks of small moth size winged bugs on all of them everyday, I chase then away with water spray. They are planted in San Antonio, TX and get up to 6 hours of direct sun, but get watered everyday. Any suggestions as to how to save them,I would not recommend this purchase to anyone. I trusted the purchase would be what was advertised, BUT, am terribly dissappointed with the vendor.

I am so impressed with the Orange Rocket Japanese Barberry that I purchased from Southern Living! The shrub was very healthy, full, and simply gorgeous. Shipping was faster than expected and the quality was as good if not better than if I had walked in and purchased it at a nursery. Since Covid-19 I have been purchasing most of my plant material online with tremendous success and I am glad to be able to add another premium online nursery to my list of sites. Highly this seller!!!

I received plant in May. Packaging was great. Purchased 2 Plants and they seemed to be in okay condition. I followed directions for planting. It is now July and one plant is doing great but the other is dying out. Half the plant died already. They are in the same location in garden and received the same treatment. I am very disappointed in what happened to second plant. I spent a lot of money on these shrubs and really take a lot of care of my garden. My garden looks GREAT except for the one shrub that is dying. I would like some support from the vendor on this.

Plant arrived and looks healthy. Planted a week ago. Time will tell if it thrives or not.

The bushes arrived exactly on time and are very healthy, large size, and just plain beautiful. I am so pleased with this purchase and intend to buy more to finish my landscaping project

This is not a 2 gallon plant. At best, this is a 1 gallon plant - at best. The plant I received is incredibly small, two main shoots and one small one forming. Just went to my local nursery to check their plants out. They have 2 and 3 gallon plants that both dwarf this for around the same price.DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY.
