The Gardener's Notepad

One of the prettiest fruiting shrubs in the trade! Early Amethyst Beautyberry produces beautiful clusters of amethyst-purple berries that adorn the shrubs graceful arching branches in early fall. It is one of the earliest berry-producing cultivars, as the name implies. Add some fall interest in the garden, or use the cuttings in an arrangement for a great pop of unexpected color!
