Gulf Stream Heavenly Bamboo*
Nandina domestica ‘Gulf Stream’

This striking, small, evergreen, disease resistant, frost hardy, easy care shrub provides beautiful red foliage during the winter season. Its dense and compact nature makes it perfect for use in smaller spaces, along walks or in mass. A perfect plant for pots because of its compact habit. A moderate to slow grower reaching 24″-30″ tall x 10″-14″ wide, the Gulf Stream Nandina requires some sun protection during the summer. It grows well in shade.
