    Maintenance Notes: 

    Beautyberry does not need a pollinator to set fruit; one plant is sufficient for a good crop. Prune, if desired, in early spring, and remove any dead wood at that point as well. The plant may experience some dieback each year in colder zones, but it will resprout from the ground and still flower and fruit that year.
