Callicarpa dichotoma Details

Callicarpa dichotoma, commonly known as Beautyberry, is a plant that brings amazing colour to the garden. It is primarily included in the landscape for its showy display of glossy, pink-coloured fruit in autumn. It grows as a rounded, deciduous shrub typically to 1 m tall and 1.5 m wide. It carries upright, slender stems that bears clusters of small, pink flowers in summer. These result in the coloured fruits that remain into winter and are great for attracting birds. This plant grows best on a well-drained, sheltered site in a full sun or partial shade position, though best flowering and fruiting will occur when planted in full sun. It is tolerant of frost, cold climates, and dry periods once established. Callicarpa dichotoma is commonly used for attracting birds, added to mixed plantings, included in cottage gardens, or planted for its unique beauty.
