The Japanese Beauty Berry (*Callicarpa japonica*) is a deciduous shrub known for its striking clusters of bright purple berries that appear in the fall. This ornamental plant typically grows 4 to 6 feet tall and wide, with arching branches covered in small, green leaves that turn yellow in autumn. In summer, it produces small, pale pink or lavender flowers, which give way to the vibrant berries that remain well into winter. The Japanese Beauty Berry thrives in well-drained soil and partial to full sun, making it a popular choice for adding year-round interest and color to gardens and landscapes.
