Vivid, Color-Changing Foliage Lasts for Months
Why Orange Rocket Barberry Shrubs?
The Orange Rocket Barberry delivers vibrant orange foliage that ages to vivid green and then ruby red in autumn. That means you get months of visual interest from the Barberry’s compact, vigorous silhouette, well-suited to planting almost anywhere.
Use the Orange Rocket in mass plantings, specimen plantings, or even in containers. This Barberry variety is especially versatile, especially since it boasts improved resistance to rust and tolerance to drought, pollution, deer, and dry soil. Nothing stands in the way or the Orange Rocket Barberry and its healthful, voluminous growth.

Planting & Care
1. Planting: Dig a hole large enough to accommodate your Rocket's root ball, backfill the soil and water to settle the roots.
Generally, the Orange Rocket prefers well-drained soil and full to partial sun (4 to 6 hours of sunlight).
2. Watering: Let your soil dry to the touch down to about 2 inches in between waterings. Once your soil is dry, give your Rocket Barberry a deep watering at the base.
3. Fertilizing: Fertilize your Barberry at the beginning of every spring with a well-balanced blend, and follow label instructions for best results.

I’m pleased with the arrival of the healthy shrubs and the care that went into shipping the product.
United StatesHealthy little plant!
This is a healthy young plant and hopefully will grow to be a vibrant addition to our garden. It does have prickers, lol. I will update in the Fall.
United StatesWe received just what we imagined, a healthy vibrant shrub.
We have no issues with our experience.
United StatesOrange Rockets Rock!
I have to admit that I was pretty worried about ordering plants online. Boy, was I wrong! The plant arrived looking healthy and as good as anything that I would have purchased at a nursery. The orange rocket looked great and is thriving after about two weeks of being planted.
