Absolutely Gorgeous
Reviewed By: Mrs. B (Cincinnati, OH)
We ordered 5 of these late last spring. They were small but healthy when they arrived. We planted them Memorial Day weekend. Ten weeks later (after record 90+ temps) they are about 24" x 24", covered with pink blossoms and absolutely gorgeous. Can't wait to see the berries in a few weeks!

Unexpected beauty
Reviewed By: Tere (Fayettevillle, OH)
I had never heard of this plant when I bought it from Gurneys. I received a nice 3 foot plant that was leafing. What an unexpected joy! The foliage is light and airy. The berries are a beautiful purple and it's fruiting in October in Ohio. I tried other internet nurseries recently. Big mistake. I'm only ordering Gurneys plants from now on. Thank you Gurneys!
