Customer Reviews for PROVEN WINNERS 4.5 in. qt. Pearl Glam Beautyberry Bush (Callicarpa) Live Shrub, Dark Purple Foliage and Violet-Purple Berries

The berries are beautiful. Lovely color and many of them.

I have grown this for three years now. It did not come from Home Depot, so I am not knocking HD, just the variety of beauty bush. It is pictured with attractive berries. I have grown it for three years now and have seen the species growing in my zone covered with berries. I thought this would be a dwarfer form. This was the first year that it 'looked' like it was going to have berries, but instead has little brown dead berries, never had those like pictured. The plant was vigorous and growing well all summer.

One of the two plants looks like it’s dead when I received them they were wilted and very dry

The plant was way smaller than I thought and does not grow well in Florida. It's obviously a different type of beauty berry that is native to Florida and which grows unbelievably well, even in the worst of soil conditions. I will not purchase this one again.

Rating provided by a verified purchaser

The Pearl Glam plants I received were healthy when they arrived. They haven't exactly taken off when planted in the yard. After several weeks, they still look the same. I'm optimistic,

This item arrived in the fall and I dormant state… Small stock with branches but no leaves. But by June of the spring it had not changed at all. I assume it’s dead even though I followed instructions completely.

Amazing small. They would never sell them in the stores

Received what looked like a twig with one tiny leave attached, and a handful of roots, about 3-4 inches tall. Plant wasn't even potted, it was just laying on top of the pot of soil, roots and all. Very disappointed and not inclined to buy any more plants via shipping. I only went this route because buying beautyberry bushes this time of year is near impossible, apparently most stores wait to sell this in the fall when the berries are out. But I think it's better to buy in person to see what exactly I'm buying. The local Home Depot customer service was even shocked at what I received when I went to return it.

Came as a literal stick and it’s slowly dying such a waste of money I fertilized it with bio tone starter fertilizer and back filled with compost and it is on drip the stick never had a chance

The bush is healthy and happy.

Growing Beautifully!!

Too early to tell yet. Still potted as its still too cold to plant. Wind damaged leaves while on the deck. I expect it will grow beautifully once in the ground. These are beautiful shrubs

Plants arrived looking healthy. Can’t wait to see them grow!

Great plants, great price, great service. They arrived quickly in excellent condition.

While I've had the plant for awhile been waiting for spring to plant, it's still pretty cold in the Pacific Northwest. Should be able to plant by end of March. The plant is a decent size, dormant with no foliage. Very well packaged and arrived in good condition. Based on my experience with Proven Winners purchased through Home Depot I expect it should do well in the first year

The plant came in beautiful and bushy. Very well protected in package. It’s fall time so I am looking forward to seeing it in the spring.

Reasonably priced. Plant was in a very good healthy condition upon arrival.

Received the plant in good condition.

The plant arrived with almost all of the leaves fallen off, dirt from pot spilled out into the box. I immediately planted and watered and we will see if it survives

Arrived well packed, very healthy, and much larger than expected.

I've been looking everywhere for this variety since seeing it featured on YouTube on Garden Answer. so glad you had it and it was beautifully packed and in great condition!

Nicely packaged! Planted as soon as I received and it’s doing great .
