Concorde Barberry is a petite plant grown for its dark purple color and compact size. It will generally stay under 2 feet tall and wide with very little pruning. It also maintains its rich foliage color throughout the growing season. Its yellow flowers are insignificant, and it sets little to no viable seed.

It prefers full sun. It is drought tolerant once established but will be fuller if it receives regular water. It requires little maintenance and is disease and pest free. The Concorde Barberry works well as an accent, foundation, or potted plant. It also works as a deterrent.
