About This Plant

Nandina domestica 'Moyers Red' (Heavenly Bamboo), 'Moyers Red', is valued for its garden character and seasonal interest in PNW landscapes.

Heavenly Bamboo (Nandina domestica) , evergreen shrub with delicate compound foliage that turns brilliant red in fall and winter, plus white spring flowers and red winter berries. Compact cultivars are widely planted.

Full sun to part shade suits this species. Plant in moist, well-drained; tolerates a range soil. Hardy USDA Zone 6 to 9. INVASIVE WATCH: berry-bearing N. domestica is on invasive lists in parts of the southeastern US (less aggressive in PNW). Sterile cultivars like 'Firepower', 'Gulf Stream', and 'Obsession' don't fruit. NOTE: berries are toxic to birds and pets , choose sterile selections.

For a Pacific Northwest native shrub of similar character, consider Mahonia aquifolium (Tall Oregon Grape, Oregon state flower), Philadelphus lewisii (Mock Orange), or Holodiscus discolor (Oceanspray) , all support native pollinators and birds.
