I have a beautyberry bush in my garden at Wildwood. It has thrived in my absence. I love it when things do that.

I found a bigger, more berriful bush in a Charleston garden. It grew in the side garden of the Manigault Mansion. It seems things grow better in Charleston.

I am still proud of my little bush on the hill at home. It is just as lovely.

It’s the purple that counts!
