Shipping
To obtain a more accurate shipment time-frame, simply enter your zip code in the “Find Your Growing Zone” box to the right. Our plants are grown all over the country and lead time on items may be different because of this. Once your order is placed, you will also receive the specific shipment time-frame information as part of your order confirmation. Once an item ships, you will receive shipment notification and tracking numbers, so you can follow along while your plant travels to your doorstep. We use FedEx, UPS, or USPS at our discretion.
Due to winter weather we have put a hold on shipping to the areas shown below in grey. You can still order now and we will ship the plant to you during an appropriate time for your zone.

Fire up your landscaping with the exciting new foliage of easy-care Tuscan Flame Nandina PP# 21,940 (Nandina domestica 'Tuscan Flame'). All year long, this compact, clump-forming, mounded broadleaf evergreen appears licked by scarlet-red flames!
New growth displays that same vivid bright coral to red hues … and remains colorfast over the entire season! Where else can you find such a bold accent on a usefully small shrub that very rarely needs pruning?
Finely divided foliage brings a soft, feathery, lacy appearance. These shrubs grow only 3-4 feet in height and 2-3 feet wide, but they pack a ton of color into a small package! Plus, occasionally in spring, you and your pollinators and butterflies will enjoy the panicles of white flowers. These blooms sometimes become berries for birds in the fall that show off among the red fall color!
Hardy throughout USDA planting zones 6-9, Nandina, also known as Tuscan Flame Sacred Bamboo or Heavenly Bamboo, is evergreen in warmer climates but can be deciduous shrubs in cooler growing zones.
In some areas, birds spread the seeds and Nandina thrives a bit too well, so not all locations around the US can have Nandina shipped into their State. Enter your Zip Code in the Plant Highlights section to find your Hardiness Zone on this page and you'll see if Nature Hills can ship Nandina safely into your area. In frost-free locations, Nandina are evergreen, but in colder areas, they will be deciduous or semi-evergreen.
Nature Hills Nursery is at the forefront of environmental regulatory compliance with all agricultural laws. We use an online tool called Plant Sentry™, which blocks shipments of plants that can behave invasively in your locale.
Planting and Application:
Naturally neat and tidy, Tuscan Flame Heavenly Bamboo is a terrific choice for contrast in foundation plantings and mixed borders. Plant low hedges to provide a consistent definition element in your garden design. Savvy homeowners know that great plantings increase property value. Boost your curb appeal with two low hedges of Tuscan Flame Heavenly Bamboo lining either side of your front walkway.
Space them 24 inches apart for a fast fill; measuring from the center of one to the center of the next. Add extra rows staggered behind the first to create an exceptional mass planting. Turn that boring bare ground into a showstopping feature with this superior cultivar of Nandina…take time to count all the tones of red you'll see!
On balconies and terraces, let Tuscan Flame shine as a "Thriller" for oversized containers. You'll enjoy many years of gorgeous year-round color and a lush backdrop for soirees and get-togethers! Add their colorful presence throughout the Rock Garden or Xeric plantings where these shrubs, also known as Sacred Bamboo, really shine!
These low-maintenance shrubs are a great companion for rugged Prairie-style perennials and Ornamental Grasses. They become a showy filler around pool decks and behind patio seating with red hues ranging from barn to coral to fire engine. Heavenly Bamboo is perfect to add drama to a mixed shrub border, creating a tropical feel to your patio seating areas and poolside plantings, in Asian-Inspired Gardens, or as a fine-textured counterpoint to a Rose Garden! You can even pot up on containers and planters!

#ProPlantTips for Care:
Plant Tuscan Flame Nandina in full sun with at least six hours of sunlight a day. It prefers a moderate, even schedule of supplemental water and well-drained soil. A 3-4 inch deep layer of arborist mulch over the root zone keeps it cool and holds moisture more consistently. Always pull mulch back away from directly touching the stems.
Likely, you'll never need to prune this well-behaved Nandina. However, you might want to snip long stems to include as filler in your cut flower arrangements! Prune after flowering if needed, removing potential berries.
- Full Sun & Some Afternoon Shade
- Almost Any Well-Drained Soil
- Moderate To Low Moisture Needs
- Prune After Flowering
- Disease, Pest, Heat & Drought-Resistance!
Fiery color all year round, the easy-to-grow Tuscan Flame Nandina will set your landscape ablaze! Order yours today at NatureHills.com!
