Beautyberry (Callicarpa americana) is a deciduous shrub that grows to a height of 3-5 feet at maturity. It blooms in late summer to early fall with small pink or purple flowers that are not particularly showy, but it is known for its striking clusters of bright purple berries that persist through the winter. Beautyberry prefers partial shade to full sun and moist, well-drained soil. It is a popular plant for its unique, colorful berries and for attracting birds and other wildlife to the garden.
