Callicarpa bodinieri MAGICAL® Snowstar 'KOLMSNOSTAR'
A callicarpa with brilliant snow-white berries
Description
A highly decorative and unusual display! Callicarpa Magical® Snowstar lights up the garden in the autumn with abundant clusters of sparkling white berries spread along the vertical stems. These berries do not become brown; they remain colourful until the end of the season. A higly ornamental shrub for the garden, it can also be used to produce gorgeous bouquets of cut branches.
Magical® Snowstar is a densely branched shrub, which can reach a height of 2 m. Pruning is recommended at the end of winter to encourage the production of new stems. Very easy to grow, it is also fully hardy and resistant to drought. A sunny exposure will promote fruiting.
Care
Annual pruning at the end of winter: cut back previous year’s branches to 10 cm from their base to stimulate the production of new stems.
