Nandina Domestica is a colourful and elegant small evergreen shrub. This hardy and tough plant is upright and bamboo-like in habit. Its foliage is comprised of lance-shaped leaves which change colour throughout the seasons. New spring growth emerges purple, changing to green for summer and autumn before turning back to purple in winter. Bees and other pollinators will be attracted to the panicles of small white flowers which appear in Summer,  followed by an abundance of stunning red berries. The Heavenly Bamboo looks fantastic when planted as a focal point in a border or large patio container and can even be grown into an informal hedge.
