I love this shrub - one of my favourites. The flowers may be small but the colour is so intense.

@Keely no problem, glad to have highlighted it. It's quite a distinct flower so once you've seen it once you tend to recognise it again 😊

I first saw it at Kew Gardens, and they were using it as hedging. Very pretty @katgreen

I am @kathy - I first saw this plant at Kew Gardens and fell in love with it straight away - they had it growing as a hedge and it looked superb in flower. 😀

Here's another new one for my garden. I purchased this a couple of weeks ago - Berberis darwinii. It's actually evergreen but it's older leaves are starting to turn bright luminous red right now. 😁
