Purple Pearls® Beautyberry Callicarpa
2 1/4" finishes to 1 gallon in 8-10 weeks, Quick Turn finishes to 2-3 gallon in 12-14 weeks
Very fast to produce – because it is at its best late in the season, you can pot up liners in spring and have a saleable plant in late summer/fall to merchandise along with mums, etc.
Upright habit means that this plant benefits substantially from trimming to help the plant fill out the container.
Requires well drained soil
Sales season is longer because dark purple foliage extends season of interest
Foliage will not attain best color under poly; place outdoors for a few weeks before sale for best presentation.
Potting a 2 ¼” liner directly to a 3 gallon is not recommended.
