Description
Illustration of a barberry branch and two tree sparrows, c. 1800s. The house was named for the red-berried bushes of barberry (Berberis canadensis) that used to grow abundantly nearby. Common barberry was introduced to North America in the 1600s and quickly became a popular
addition to yards.
