If you believe that native plants are less showy than exotic ones, then you haven’t met American Beautyberry. This southeastern gem is not subtle! In late summer and fall, bunches and bunches of screaming magenta berries ring its stems, making a riveting display. They are a beacon to birds, who come flocking. According to the USDA, more than 40 species of birds consume the berries, including mockingbirds, finches, thrashers, robins, and towhees. The bright purple-pink fruits often catch the eye of migrating birds, like the Black-Throated Blue Warbler, who may swoop in for a meal. Dazzling!
