Description

A white flowering perennial plant with large oval shaped leaves and white flowers appearing in July to August which are much loved by nectar seekers. Unlike the native American Pokeberry, this species is not invasive and holds its flowers and berry clusters upright. The striking clusters of shiny, purple berries look like shiny black pearls and are much loved by birds. The mid green leaves have white veining and pink pigmentation, which only darkens in the flowering stems when berries are forming. It is tolerant of any type of soil.

Sowing Advice

Sow immediately at any time onto preferably a soil-based compost, covering with fine grit to approximately their own depth. Germination MAY be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. but many seeds WILL NOT come up the year they are sown, needing winter chilling after sowing, and ONLY come up with natural spring germination.
