Callicarpa bodinieri
£3.50Price
A lovely deciduous shrub with delicate pink flowers in summer and large clusters of violet bead-like berries in autumn, through winter. The young foliage is often bronze-purple, becoming dark green in summer before turning golden purple in autumn.
The bare branches laden with berries look gorgeous in flower arrangements, and the shrub also brightens up a late autumn border. Great for wild life and attractive to birds who'll delight in eating the berries when ripe.
It is a medium-sized deciduous shrub of upright habit, to 3m in height. Leaves 5-12cm in length, lanceolate, purplish when young, turning rosy-pink in autumn. Flowers small, lilac; berries 4mm, violet-purple, in compact clusters
