Common Name: Heavenly Bamboo
Nandina is an elegant evergreen or semi-evergreen shrub that looks good in every season. Its delicate, evergreen foliage has red or purple tints in spring and in summer, the plant bears sprays of tiny white flowers. In summer, the foliage turns pale green, and green berries begin to appear. These turn bright red in autumn, as the foliage takes on fiery red or bronze tints. The berries and foliage remain on the plant throughout winter, giving colour and interest.

| Extra Info: | Despite its name, heavenly bamboo isnt actually isnt a bamboo at all. It looks similar, but it is actually a member of the Berberis family, Berberidaceae. It is, however, a good alternative to bamboo in the garden – not only does it provide more interest but it is not invasive, as some bamboos can be. |
