Lookup beauty berries. Their fruit is edible and makes a nice jam. True to their name, they’re beautiful when fruiting.

- genewitch 3y agothose grow wild all over the land here, i just found out what they were called last year; although i had heard they're not edible but to leave them for birds. I'll ask the Ag Center if they're safe to eat.
- SEJeff 3y agoPlease do ask your AG center, but they’ll tell you they’re safe to eat. I make a jam of sorts with the berries. They’re not real sweet but are totally edible
- pvaldes 3y agoBirds have their own plans for the Callicarpa berries, but are excellent plants for dry shadow. And leaves take a rare true-pink tone in fall.
