Berberis darwinii, also known as Darwin's barberry, is a flowering plant in the Berberidaceae family native to southern Chile and Argentina. It is an evergreen shrub that can grow up to 3-4 meters tall and is characterized by its dense branches and small, spiny leaves. The plant produces orange flowers in the spring and small purple-black berries in the summer. It was discovered by Charles Darwin during his voyage on the 'Beagle' in 1835 and has been named in his honor. The berries of this species have been consumed by native peoples in the Patagonian region for thousands of years. Berberis darwinii is a popular garden and hedging shrub in the British Isles and has been given the Award of Garden Merit by the Royal Horticultural Society. However, it is considered an invasive species in New Zealand, Australia, and parts of the United States, where it has escaped from gardens and poses a threat to indigenous ecosystems.
