    Variegated beauty berry, this graceful shrub, new from Japan, is a beauty both in fruit and leaf. The 6-8' arching branches are indeed adorned with amethyst fruit in late autumn. But wait there's more. The leaves are evenly speckled cream and white with blushed red petioles. Ohhhh! Surprisingly tolerant of sun but we suggest at least afternoon protection. Regular if not frequent summer water. Be the first on your block to have this lovely creature. Frost hardy into USDA zone 6, possibly below.
