About Barberry As Shrubs, a Potential Invader, and Bonsai Trees
Read more on this species and how to identify and train them into bonsai here in my recent article. Briefly, while these make great bonsai due to their small leaves and colorful interest, there is no native barberry in the state of Ohio. Those listed here are Japanese barberry which is not officially listed as invasive in Ohio but they can escape cultivation. The European barberry with a more serrated leaf is known to be invasive here though and should not be propagated or allowed to set seeds.

This is the biggest single trunk barberry I've dug yet (so much so that I'm not sure I want to sell it!) It was dug in the spring of 2023 and photographed in the fall of 2023. In 2024 it has leafed out vigorously and is ready to start bonsai training! Price NFS. |
I have one more big big barberry clump. It was dug in 2023 as the other recent ones were and is now fully recovered. It could be trained either as a clump or in spring it could be separated into multiple pieces. Price $350. |
I also have 2 shohin barberries I planted onto rock slabs this spring. Once I confirm their recovery I will post them for sale also.
