Does it grow to have thornes #JapaneseBarberry

My Crimson Pygmy Japanese Barberry plants arrived today! I blame the mess on FedEx with the damaged box they delivered. However, the plants themselves seem relatively healthy. Slight breaking points from transport, but I think I can grow these beautifully. These will be grown entirely indoors, under small grow lights and near a window. I will be carefully monitoring the temp/humidity because they usually thrive outdoors. Wish me luck! 🙏
