Grower Tips:
For burgundy foliage, full Sun is required. Leaves will fade to almost green the greater the shade. MIDNIGHT WINE is ideal for the front of the border or for edging the perennial bed. This tidy mound of dark burgundy-purple leaves can be used as an accent plant or a dramatic mass planting. Consider using it instead of Crimson Pygmy Barberry: MIDNIGHT WINE doesnt have any thorns!
Midnight Wine is more compact than Fine Wine and Wine & Roses.
