Callicarpa americana is a woody shrub that can be single or multi-stemmed, with large, opposite, ovate leaves. Clusters of tiny pinkish-white flowers sprout along the stems in late spring. Brilliant lavender to purple berries in the fall attract birds and other wildlife including foxes, raccoons, and deer. Fruit is often winter persistent, lasting through late winter. Beautyberry is an important wildlife forage plant in the Southeast.
