Nandina domestica Blush Pink - Sacred Bamboo - Plant in 9 cm Pot

Nandina originates from China and Japan and is an unusual monotipic genus (only plant in it's genus) which is frequently referred to as a type of Bamboo. This is quite misleading as the plant has no relationship to Bamboo, well except the fact they are both plants! It is a member of the same family as Berberis. Nandina domestica Blush Pink is an evergreen shrub that arose as a sport of Firepower in Texas USA. in 2004. A lovely, showy plant, Nandina domestica Blush Pink has broader leaves that emerge a striking pink before turning a fresh, light green. Can be used in a mixed planting, as a central specimen plant or in a container. If planting in a pot or other container. Use a good quality compost. Ensure you feed regularly as a hungry plant is a poor performer. We recommend Osmoscote pro 8-9 month applied in the early spring. One application gives all the nutrients the plant requires for the whole year. Nandina are regarded as hardy in the Uk. except in the very coldest locations.
