Hello there,
I would really really like to be able to find out what this plant is
called - my partner and I were walking in Hampshire, in the south of
England and we spotted this unusual little plant that appeared to be
growing out of someone's front garden.
I will try my best to attach pictures but so far its not letting me.
The colour of the flowers on this plant are really unique and rare -
they are a gorgeous metallic shade of purple and they come in tiny
clusters of balls. The stem is a light woody colour and there is no
foliage with this plant - they resemble slightly misletoe but mistletoe
has leaves generally, which is not the case with this rare plant.
Please help! Any sort of clue would be wonderful - I have searched
high and low and nothing has come up.
Many thanks..
Christelle

Is it what you saw in Hampshire?

If that is the case, its 'murasakishikibu' or Japanese beautyberry
(Callicarpa japonica Thumb) .
The fruits would stay as it is after all the leaves are gone.
i guess you might saw it with no leaves.
If my brain cells have been activated properly,
i may have hit the mark.grin
