Callicarpa americana 'Lactea' (White American Beautyberry)

The Callicarpa americana 'Lactea', commonly known as the White American Beautyberry, is a deciduous shrub known for its beautiful clusters of white berries that adorn its branches in the late summer and fall. The creamy white berries persist on the bush long after the leaves have fallen, providing a striking contrast against the stark winter landscape. This cultivar of the native American Beautyberry has variegated foliage, with green leaves that are edged in white, adding even more visual interest to the plant. With a spreading, arching habit, it reaches a height and width of 4-6 feet.
