The Blush Pink™ Nandina lives up to its name, with beautiful pink new leaves topping a compact bush. They hold that color all summer, looking bright and bold, and then darken to a rich red for winter – the perfect seasonal color. This evergreen shrub grows just a couple of feet tall and wide, so it is perfect for edging, as a specimen in a small space, or for growing in any kind of planter or pot. Its glossy foliage has a bamboo-like appearance, so it looks great in an Asian garden or a modern minimalist one. Perfect in wooded areas or more formal garden spaces.
Happy in many light levels, the Blush Pink™ Nandina grows well in full sun or partial shade. Even full shade doesn’t bother it, so plant anywhere you need it – this plant always looks good and it needs nothing. It grows well in all kinds of soil, except very wet ones, and it thrives with regular moisture and richer soils, with added organic material and mulch. Pests and diseases don’t bother it at all, and it doesn’t flower so it can’t spread into surrounding natural areas.
