White American Beautyberry is a loose open native deciduous shrub with rich green foliage valued for its fruits. Clusters of shell pink flowers bloom in summer attracting bees and butterflies, then give way to clusters of striking white fruits. Best foliage color in full sun, but some shade promotes drought tolerance.
