Nandina 'Gulfstream'

Heavenly Bamboo, Sacred Bamboo

This bamboolike shrub is grown for its finely-textured foliage, upright canelike stems, and showy red berries which give color through winter. Varieties are available in varying heights, textures and leaf colors. Leaves color better in sun, but need some shade in hot areas. Excellent hedge, screen, or container plants, they tolerate coastal winds and salt spray. Pruned properly, they can be trained as a bonsai. Prune to remove damaged and older canes to encourage new growth. Killed to ground at 5º F, it recovers quickly. Resists oak root fungus.

The dense growth of leaves holds its autumn oranges and reds well into spring.
