      Beautiful colour Redstar - is it a Beautyberry bush (Callicarpa)?

        Yes, its a Callicarpa. I have three of them. All three in separate type of lighting situations, so each grow a little different. The sunniest one, is more compact, the other two =less sun are more airy, but all give up the beautiful purple berries.

          The latest of my "Toadies" to bloom is another of the new ones - T.macropoda (dilatata)...............

          One of the smaller Tricyrtis blooms. I love the reflexed petals on this!
