Shrub Border in Burgundy and Blue

This mixed hedge offers a display of colorful foliage and flower from spring to fall. In spring, electric pink tassels against the dark foliage of Chinese fringe flower create a showy display. From summer to fall, the elegant blooms of the hydrangea create an easy-care floral display. Together with the rosy-pink, aging-to-burgundy foliage of the barberry, they create an easy-care tapestry of color, perfect for the back of a mixed border or to create a screen.
