Berberis thunb.Orange Rocket

Dazzling shades of ruby and orange will brighten up any garden!

Berberis thunb. Orange Rocket will bring dazzling colour to any garden. When grown in a sunny spot this deciduous shrub emerges a bright orange-red before turning a deeper ruby! Orange Rocket will catch any eye when woven through the border or potted up on the patio. It has a naturally slender and upright habit, so it also lends itself well to forming a low(ish) hedge or screen.

As well as the colourful foliage, Berberis Orange Rocket also produces small yellow flowers in spring and early summer, and these are followed by red berries in the autumn. Keep in mind that in shadier spots, the foliage colour will not be as vivid (and will often turn greener), so if you want it to light up like a torch, it really should be grown in full sun.

Berberis thunb. Plant - Orange Rocket® Plant Berberis in full sun or partial shade, on a reliably moist, well-drained soil. Barberry plants are extremely resilient and will grow on many different soil types, except waterlogged.

Live Plants

Dobies strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.

Non Standard Deliveries

Unfortunately like many companies in our industry we are currently only able to supply orders to UK based customers, excluding those in Northern Ireland. We are committed to finding a way that we can resume or normal services again as soon as possible. Please accept our apologies for any inconvience caused.

We reserve the right to contact you and advise an additional charge where necessary and are happy to quote for carriage of specific products to more remote areas. Some items may not be available to all areas.
