Callicarpa bodinieri ‘Magical Snowqueen’ is a striking deciduous shrub admired for its unique and ornamental appeal. A cultivar of the popular ‘Beauty Berry’, it stands out with its clusters of gleaming white berries that adorn its branches in autumn and winter, providing a stunning contrast to the rich green foliage that turns golden in autumn. Growing to a height of around 1.75m, and spreading to 1.5m, ‘Magical Snowqueen’ is perfect for adding structure and interest to mixed borders or as a standalone feature plant. It thrives in well-drained soil and sunny to partially shaded positions, making it a versatile choice for a variety of garden styles. Loved by florists, the branches make a stunning addition to your winter floral arrangements. During July and August, small pink flowers are produced, attracting pollinators such as bees, contributing to the biodiversity of your garden. However, its true show-stopper moment is the display of white berries, which persist into winter and provides food for the birds. Hardy to around -20°C and low-maintenance, Callicarpa bodinieri ‘Magical Snowqueen’ is an elegant choice for year-round garden interest.
