Nandina domestica 'Firepower' | Dwarf Heavenly Bamboo | Evergreen Shrub | Brilliant Red Winter Foliage | 1 Gallon Live Plant

Bring brilliant year-round color to your landscape with Nandina domestica 'Firepower', a compact dwarf Heavenly Bamboo prized for its vibrant seasonal foliage. Fresh lime-green leaves emerge in spring and summer before transforming into brilliant shades of fiery red, orange, and burgundy during fall and winter, providing exceptional four-season interest.

Unlike larger nandina varieties, Firepower maintains a naturally compact, mounding habit without producing invasive growth, making it ideal for foundation plantings, borders, containers, mass plantings, and Japanese-inspired gardens. This easy-care evergreen shrub is heat tolerant, drought tolerant once established, deer resistant, and highly adaptable to a wide range of growing conditions.

Whether planted as a colorful accent, low hedge, or container specimen, Firepower Nandina delivers outstanding foliage color with very little maintenance throughout the year.
