Perfect as a low maintenance addition to borders, patio containers and exotic planting schemes, these heavenly bamboo plants provide year round interest. Nandina Duo Contains one each of Nandina domestica 'Magical Lemon and Lime' and Nandina domestica 'Blush Pink' Nandina domestica 'Magical Lemon and Lime' is a compact, evergreen to semi-evergreen shrub that brightens borders and patio containers year-round with its striking foliage. It forms a bushy shrub clothed in handsome narrow leaves that offer a useful textural contrast to broader-leaved plants. In spring the leaves emerge lemon-green, turning vivid lime-green in summer. Grow it in the sun to maintain its vibrant foliage colour – plants grown in the shade will turn dark green. Height and spread: 60cm (24in).  Nandina domestica 'Blush Pink' is a particularly flamboyant cultivar with blush pink young foliage in spring. The new growth retains its pink hue throughout the summer, developing to fiery red shades in autumn and winter. During the following year the leaves mature to green, but the fabulous colours are replaced by a new flush of fabulous pink growth. This vibrant Heavenly Bamboo also bears dainty white flowers in July followed by small red berries. This superb semi-evergreen shrub makes an ideal specimen plant with plenty of year round interest. A lovely, low maintenance addition to borders, patio containers and exotic planting schemes.  Height and spread: 1m (39").
