The young plant arrived in excellent condition and seems to be thriving. In any case, very lovely foliage.

Very lovely little bush, which I planted in a pot. Very well packaged, it arrived very quickly in perfect condition. It doesn't have all its autumn colours yet, I can't wait :-)

The Nandinas are magnificent plants all year round and require no maintenance. The young plant I received is very beautiful, well bushy with a lovely foliage.

Plant arrived quickly in good condition, only the soil in the pot had been disturbed but without any harm to the young plant.

I love this bush because it is elegant and unique, it's my 3rd one. This time I chose another variety. Arrived in very good condition.

Tours" translates to "Towers" in British English.
Lovely little young plant received in good condition. Careful packaging, and soil remained well moist despite the long journey. The foliage is very graphic, I really like it. I have planted two tillers in a large wooden planter on a sunny terrace. Can't wait for them to grow, and to see them at their best for the colours :)

MAG-NI-FI-CENT !!! My favourite variety. If you like shades of orange, especially in autumn and winter, this plant is made for you! It brings life to my garden in the "dead" season...! That's the MAGICAL thing about nandinas: their foliage is both evergreen, light and delicate, AND it changes colours (very rare for an evergreen plant). Personally, I have planted lots of nandinas, in masses for a very beautiful effect, especially in the dead season. In addition to the "Gulf Stream" variety, I have chosen the "Sunset Boulevard" variety (an improvement on "Gulf Stream", apparently with longer-lasting colours; I'm waiting to see as I recently acquired this variety), "Obsessed Seika", very red, also very beautiful, and "Firepower", acid green/chartreuse in summer, then pink in autumn, then deep red in winter. The advantage of these varieties is that they stay relatively low, so they are ideal for flowerbeds. After that, the standard species (nandina domestica "standard") is also very beautiful, but it becomes taller (reaching 2m (7ft) at maturity). It also offers beautiful colours in autumn/winter. Nandina pairs very well with leucothoe keiskei ‘Burning Love’ (a beautiful deep violet in winter), small berberis (especially berberis thunbergii "Golden Torch" and "Orange Rocket" - the "Orange Ice" variety is downright fluorescent!! but they are deciduous; that being said, they retain their foliage for a very long time, so they are almost semi-evergreen), lonicera nitida "Baggesen's Gold" and ilex crenata "Golden Gem" (evergreen varieties for their part). Finally, Andromeda polifolia ‘Blue Ice’ brings a delightful touch of blue - just like blue fescues (also evergreen foliage). In short, there is plenty to add colour to your garden and give it lots of pep, even in winter!! :-) (to the wise, farewell ;-) ).

Beautiful little Nandina, I have paired it with bronze-coloured dwarf spireas, their colour blends perfectly. A shoot that indeed grows quite slowly, and therefore not at all invasive.

I have received my Nandina domestica, I immediately put it in a pot but I want to inform you that some new shoots had been affected by frost. They were blackened and dry. It's a shame, I was satisfied with my previous order.
