Nandina domestica, Sacred Bamboo or Heavenly Bamboo is endemic to a widespread area of Asia from the Himalayan foothills, throughout China and across to Japan where it grows in montane forests, along riverbanks and roadsides usually below 1000m. It has glossy compound leaves which are a truly heavenly when the new growth emerges in Spring with their pinkish-red colouration and light airy texture that seems to float above last years foliage. As the branchlets mature they turn more green and in summer, creamy-white flowers with bright yellow anthers are borne on erect tall erect inflorescences. These are followed in autumn by bright red berries that resemble the berries of Holly. The foliage often turns red in winter.

Nandina domestica is a gem of a plant. It foliage contrasts well with a wide range of other plants and its flowers and berries are a joy.
