The clean, deep blue-green summer foliage develops an attractive yellow-orange to purple fall color. It is rounded with ascending graceful arching branches that are leggy, and somewhat irregular. Bridalwreath is truly a low-maintenance shrub with no problems. It grows to 5-9 feet tall, spreading to 6-8 feet. It requires full sun, average soil; occasional pruning my be needed just to maintain shape. Remove some of the oldest canes at ground level after bloom. Can be used as a single specimen, hedge or in shrub plantings. ... additional info

Heavenly Bamboo The Heavenly Bamboo, Nadina domestica, is not a true bamboo but a upright 6-8’ high, semi-evergreen shrub that tends to slowly sucker at the base, forming colonies. When this plant is in full sun it usually assumes a reddish tint in winter (depending on environmental conditions). Perfect and pinkish in bud, finally white 8-15” long panicles appear in May-June, and will flower in heavy shade. Heavenly Bamboo is more showy that most hollies because fruit is not hidden by foliage. Once established, they are very tough plants, thriving in sun, shade, moist or dry conditions.
