Description
The Nandina domestica is a lovely little evergreen shrub. This Chinese native features green pinnate leaves which are purple-red when young, and turn purple-red again in the winter. In summer, panicles of small white flowers appear; these develop into glossy red berries in autumn. This shrub works well when planted in a flower bed or as part of a border. Ensure that you plant this shrub in a fairly sunny, yet sheltered spot, as it needs protections from harsh winter conditions.
