Beautyberry is a deciduous shrub valued for its spectacular fruits. The relatively insignificant flowers develop into prolific bright violet to magenta berry-like drupes that encircle the stem. These fruits remain attractive for a long time although they are generally gone before severe winter weather. Beautyberry is native to the eastern United States. This shrub thrives in full sun to part shade. Prune in late winter, since flowers and fruit appear on new wood.
