But, I'm afraid I'd have the frustration of the deer chomping it.<br /><br />The first one of these I saw was a large old one, at a heritage village in Dallas where I was a docent. It would be bent over with those beautiful berries in the fall.Linda/patchworkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12639872362919575736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6808857981868159973.post-13210764664213054612012-02-08T07:34:27.719-06:002012-02-08T07:34:27.719-06:00Your beautyberry is unusually leafy and well-posit...Your beautyberry is unusually leafy and well-positioned.
