Nandina domestica ‘Plum Passion’ has deep purplish red new foliage that turns deep green in summer and rich reddish-purple in fall and winter while staying evergreen. Clusters of small white summer flowers give way to bright orange-red winter fruit popular with birds. Not a bamboo at all but a non-invasive relative of Mahonia, the Oregon grape. Nandina are incredibly versatile and useful evergreen shrubs with great interest from foliage texture and colours. Full shade right up to full sun!
