Callicarpa americana | Parkers Pink | 20 Seeds

Callicarpa americana Parkers Pink, commonly known as Parkers Pink beautyberry, is a cultivated variety of the native American beautyberry shrub, prized for its distinctive pink berries. This deciduous shrub typically grows 3 to 6 feet tall and wide, with gracefully arching branches and large, green, ovate leaves that create a lush, textured appearance. In late spring to early summer, clusters of small, pale pink flowers bloom along the stems, attracting bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. By late summer to fall, the flowers mature into eye-catching, pastel-pink berries that persist into winter, providing visual interest and a food source for birds and wildlife. Parkers Pink thrives in a variety of soils, including sandy, loamy, and clay, as long as they are well-draining. It prefers partial shade to full sun and is moderately drought-tolerant once established. This cultivar is especially valued in ornamental landscapes for its unique berry color, wildlife appeal, and adaptability
