Re: Callicarpa resurrection, etc

I'm sorry to hear that, Kitty. Callicarpa is native to this part of the world. I'll check to see if I have any babies and send you one this fall if you want me to.

I rejoice today. My American beautyberry (Callicarpa americanus) has finally broken dormancy - on the 29th of June! I had given it up for dead, even though, when I scratched the bark, I saw green underneath. I'd dug up another rose infected with rose rosette, and decided to remove the "dead" beautyberry, when I saw leaf-break. I knew it was slow to break dormancy, but this must be a record of some sort.
Anyone have an idea as to what is causing my river birch to drop its leaves? About one third have turned yellow and dropped.
