Callicarpa dichotoma d.b. (Beauty Bush) is a deciduous shrub rather than a tree.

Appearance: The Beauty Bush is a medium-sized shrub that typically grows to a height of 6 to 10 feet (1.8 to 3 meters) with a similar spread. It has an upright, arching growth habit with long, slender branches. The leaves are elliptical and opposite, measuring about 2 to 4 inches (5 to 10 centimeters) in length. They are dark green in color and turn yellow in the fall.

Flowers: The Beauty Bush produces clusters of small, lilac to pink flowers that bloom in late spring to early summer. The flowers are tubular with four lobes and are highly attractive to butterflies and bees.

Fruit: After the flowers, the Beauty Bush produces small, round berries that are initially green and gradually turn to a vibrant shade of purple. The berries persist into fall and can add ornamental interest to the shrub.

Habitat and Range: Beauty Bush is native to East Asia, specifically regions such as China, Korea, and Japan. It is cultivated in various other regions as an ornamental shrub.

Landscape Use: Beauty Bush is primarily grown as an ornamental shrub in gardens and landscapes. It is valued for its clusters of colorful flowers and attractive berries, which provide visual interest. It can be used as a specimen plant, in borders or hedges, or in naturalized areas.

Maintenance: Beauty Bush is generally low-maintenance. It prefers well-drained soil and thrives in full sun to partial shade. Pruning is usually done after flowering to maintain its shape and encourage new growth. Regular watering, especially during dry periods, is recommended to establish and maintain the shrub.
