Why Buy Nandina for Your Garden?

Nandina, often called heavenly bamboo, is prized for its ever-changing foliage that ranges from fresh greens in spring to bold reds and oranges in autumn and winter. These evergreen shrubs are incredibly versatile: use them as neat hedges, border plantings, colourful specimens, or even in pots on patios. With their low maintenance needs and tolerance of a wide range of Kiwi climates, nandinas are ideal for both urban courtyards and rural gardens.

When you buy nandina, you’re investing in a reliable shrub with year-round visual appeal. Their lush texture and compact habit suit modern garden designs, cottage gardens, and traditional landscapes alike. Many varieties produce delicate white flowers and clusters of ornamental berries, providing extra seasonal interest.

Explore Our Nandina Range

We grow and supply a curated selection of nandina varieties, so you can find the best match for your garden. Looking for a petite option? Nandina Little Flick is a compact shrub that’s perfect for low borders or container planting. For a feathery, dwarf habit, discover Nandina 'Pygmaea', which brings a soft, fern-like texture and rich colour to any space.

If you prefer something that stays tidy without trimming, Nandina Harbor Dwarf will impress you with its rounded shape and vivid foliage. After a pop of colour? Nandina Blush Pink is a standout with pink-tinted new growth and lush greenery all year. For those who love classic garden favourites, Nandina domestica offers larger, bolder foliage and beautiful sprays of berries.

How to Use Nandina in Your Landscape

Nandina thrives in full sun to part shade and requires little fuss once established. These tough shrubs are drought-tolerant, pest-resistant, and adaptable to a range of soil types—making them a favourite for New Zealand gardens. Use nandinas to create structured hedges, add vertical lines to mixed borders, or as glowing accents in winter gardens when other plants fade.

For smaller gardens or urban spaces, choose a dwarf nandina like Nandina Little Flick or Nandina Harbor Dwarf for vibrant year-round interest in pots or raised beds. Mix and match different varieties for a striking tapestry of colours and textures.
