Nandina Moon Bay 180MM

Nandina domestica 'Moon Bay'

I am Nandina Moon Bay. My family originated from Asia.

Habit Shrub - Winter Colour
Plant family Berberidaceae
I am a delightful small growing Nandina with elegant finely branching stems with typical intense Nandina red new growth in winter that matures to a light golden green. I am very adaptable growing well in full sun and shade, tolerant of frost and dry conditions. Hardy I do well in exposed locations and coastal conditions. I am equally happy planted in the garden individually, in a border, as a low hedge or planted in a pot or container.
I am popular and will make you happy because...
