Comments:
Nandina domestica 'Fire
Power' or Dwarf Nandina or Dwarf Heavenly
Bamboo Nandina 'Fire Power' or Nandina is an
attractive unique looking bush with a moderate rounded growth. This
perennial is a
fire-retardant, is carefree and low maintenance. The vivid
reddish-colored
leaves of Dwarf Heavenly
Bamboo Nandina 'Fire Power' provide Fall and Winter
interests. Grown in masses, Nandina domestica 'Fire Power' looks
decorative for the borders, beddings or edgings of sidewalks, driveways
or walkways. Grow Dwarf Nandinia in a container to accentuate the
patio or deck. I enjoy the lovely red shoots of this
humidity-loving bush.
