Murasaki-Shikibu Japanese Beautyberry

The Callicarpa japonica 'Murasaki-Shikibu' is one of the most visually striking bonsai specimens available — celebrated for its clusters of vivid, jewel-like purple berries that emerge in autumn and persist well into winter. A plant that commands attention in any collection.

Murasaki-Shikibu (紫式部) – a court lady in purple

This cultivar is named after Murasaki Shikibu, a renowned Japanese author of the Heian period who wrote The Tale of Genji — one of the world’s earliest novels and an enduring epic of love and court life. Translated as “a court lady in purple,” the name pays tribute to the plant’s richly coloured berries, which echo the deep purples of Heian imperial dress. Owning this plant is, in a small way, a nod to over a thousand years of Japanese culture and artistry.

Why Choose Murasaki-Shikibu?

  • Spectacular berry display: Dense clusters of vivid purple berries make this one of the most eye-catching autumn and winter bonsai
  • Aged character: At 25 years old, these specimens arrive with established trunk width and natural bonsai form
  • Authentic Japanese import: Sourced directly from Japan for true cultivar quality and character
  • Standard growth rate: Regular berry size and reliable seasonal performance
  • Easy to grow: Adaptable and forgiving — suitable for beginners and experienced growers alike

TOO SMALL
Size: Medium, Color: Blue
Nice socks, but they are way too small. Says they fit size 6 - 10. I kept 3 ( I wear size 8) and gave 3 to my daughter (size 8.5). We both agreed that they were just too small.
