Nandina domestica 'Summer Sunset' pbr
The foliage of 'Summer Sunset' is its standout feature. New growth emerges in shades of red and orange, transitioning to green as it matures. In cooler weather, the foliage often takes on brilliant shades of pink, red, and purple, giving it a dynamic, multi-seasonal appeal. Small white flowers appear in late spring to early summer. While attractive, they are not as showy as the foliage.
Cultural
Prefers a full sun to partial shade position in well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral soil, though it is adaptable to various soil types. Minimal pruning is required; prune in late winter to early spring to remove any dead or damaged branches and to maintain a tidy shape. Generally pest-free, but occasionally susceptible to scale and aphids.
Landscape Uses
Ideal for borders, mass plantings, containers, and as an accent plant. Its compact size and vibrant foliage make it a great choice for small gardens and patio areas.
