Beautyberries — Callicarpa americana

Callicarpa americana is known as American Beautyberry, French Mulberry and Spanish Mulberry.

Beautyberry bush — Callicarpa americana

Callicarpa means beautiful fruit. The bush is not much to look at until these magenta beauties appear in early fall. The berries have been used for jelly and wine and are another favorite for wildlife.

Their coloring is quite striking in a very intensely calm way, like they are the color of patience… which may be just a bit of synesthesia at play.

  I never thought about the color of patience. It seems so fitting that we wait patiently for these beauties to appear… they grow all summer and mature into being at just the right time. A reward for patience. Great link between those!

I wish I had the background to know which plants are edible and which are not…

  Well I’m learning more and more as I take pictures. I’m happy for hours with a plant encyclopedia. I’ll try to keep posting what I learn so maybe you’ll recognize a few when you see them sometime 😊
