The plant has grown remarkably slow. However, it is a beautiful plant. It is July in North Carolina and the plant is full of purple berries.

Extremely pretty and so far seems hardy here in southern Finland, but last winter was not cold.

Seems to spread fast - las...Read Moret year it had 1 stem, now 11!
