Nandina, Dwarf Nandina, Dwarf Heavenly Bamboo 'Monfar'

i like this plant. it colors up very nicely in winter (the colder the better) and is evergreen. it takes about a year before it loses t...Read Morehat frail, spindly look and then it starts to thicken up.
i think that several of the pictures listed here as 'Fire Power' are wrong. there are a decent amount of cultivars available and i think some people are confusing them with this one. this cultivar is not airy or lacy but rather bushy and the leaves are smaller and wider than some shown.

The beauty of these plants is that they are not of uniform color and bring with the changing of the seasons new colors upon which to gaze...Read More.

Around Christmas time in my area they look as if they're red decorations lining the walkway.

A most versitle plant.

Nice little evergreen shrub for warm climates. Turns a vivid reddish color in the fall and winter.

Very frail looking, still haven't been able to get this plant to thrive very well.

Its chartreuse coloration with mottled pink, red, and washed out greens makes the plants I have look like they've been hit with some sort of chemical burn. The curled leaves only add to the unappealing appearance of this plant. The only time the plants look good are when the leaves first leaf out. My plants are over four years old and are quite healthy, but the coloration and overall appearance are not what I hoped they'd be. I'm probably going to dig them up and replace them this fall with something with a lot more visual appeal.

This is a lovely plant that can become tall, elegant, and balanced. The firepower ( see photos) has required little care besides pruning ...Read Moreof offshoots and berries, some loose restraint mostly for wind control ( wide rings and spirals attached to stakes), twice-weekly watering, and about bimonthly light feeding. And it's about 7 ft tall.....I think there may be much discrepancy among specimens, as my plant does not look at all like the "mottled" bush others seem to indicate by pictures or notes, and no leaves are curled.

This plant makes a lovely border for walkways, sidewalks, and ever driveways. I have 4 and I absolutely love them, the new life comes out...Read More as a light green and slowly turns into more red. I would reccommend this plant to anyone looking for a decent sized hedge plant that has a unique color and contrast with other plants.
