Nandina domestica ‘Compacta’ is a dwarf variety of heavenly bamboo known for its upright, clumping growth habit and graceful, lacy foliage. Reaching about 3 to 4 feet tall and wide, it provides a more compact version of standard nandina without sacrificing seasonal interest. The foliage emerges with hints of red, turns lush green in summer, and deepens to vibrant shades of crimson and burgundy in fall and winter. Compacta is adaptable, low-maintenance, and an excellent choice for hedges, borders, or naturalistic groupings.
This section shows how the plant will fit into your yard and into your life.
