Berberis verruculosa, common name the Warty Barberry, is an evergreen shrub, ranging in size from 1-2 m, native to western China. The leaves are 1.5-2 cm long, hard, leathery, glossy dark green above, vivid white below with stomatal wax; in cold winter weather, the leaves may turn purplish-green above on exposed shoots. The flowers are small, yellow, and mature into dark purple fruit 6-10 mm long. It gets its common name from its "warty" stems, that have rounded, more or less identical, raised spots. It thrives in shade or partial shade.
