Nandina has long been a mainstay in Southern landscapes, and for good reason. A remarkably adaptable plant, Nandina effortlessly transitions from sun to shade, moist to dry soils, and modern to traditional designs. This tough plant needs little pampering and performs beautifully in our hottest and coldest weather. No wonder nandina established such a foothold in the gardens of our parents and grandparents. With modern cultivars we can evoke the memory of those cherished landscapes, while changing the rules as to how, and where, nandina is used in the garden.
There are several varieties of Nandina. Mine are called Flirt. Stunning, deep red, new growth accentuates the evergreen leaves of this nandina. Flirt has superior color through the summer unlike similar varieties.
One of my favorites in my yard are the Nandinas. I have the regular and the dwarf. Very pretty foliage year round. And they are very low maintenance. Mine are planted in the shade, in the front yard. And they thrive with only a little fertilizer twice a year.

Nice plant … I do not have it in my garden
Thanks to you for commenting.
I’m not sure we have it here but it sounds like the perfect plant for my family – hard to die
Thanks, you are right, they are very hardy.
Another plant that I think is not with us
Sorry my friend, they are common here.
