BEAUTY BERRY (Callicarpa Purpurea) —A beauti¬ 
ful shrub growing 2 to 4 feet tall which is native 
in the south but can be grown successfully in the 
north if given a sheltered location. But even if the 
tops should freeze, it will grow right up again 
from the roots like the Butterfly Bush, and flower 
and fruit from the new wood. In August it is 
literally covered with exquisite pink flowers, 
followed by many large clusters of the loveliest 
violet berries. Our plants will bloom and fruit 
this season.
