Description

Dwarf Heavenly Bamboo is a classic, low-growing evergreen shrub that provides multi-season color and fine texture for groundcover or borders. It forms a dense, spreading mound of delicate, bamboo-like foliage that emerges coppery-pink, matures to soft green, and then transforms to vibrant burgundy-red in fall and winter. It produces airy white flower clusters in summer, followed by bright red berries if not deadheaded. This tough, deer-resistant plant is perfect for adding year-round interest to Asian-inspired gardens, pathway edging, or understory plantings.

• Multi-Season Foliage Color: Foliage emerges coppery-pink in spring, matures to soft green in summer, and turns burgundy-red in fall and winter.

• Dense, Spreading Groundcover Habit: Forms a low, dense, weed-suppressing mound, typically 1-2 feet tall and 2-3 feet wide.

• Ornamental Flowers & Berries: Produces airy clusters of white flowers in early summer, followed by persistent bright red berries (on some cultivars) that attract birds.

• Extremely Tough & Adaptable: Highly tolerant of drought, heat, poor soil, and shade once established. It is also deer and rabbit resistant.

• Low Maintenance: Requires minimal pruning; simply remove old canes at the base in late winter to encourage fresh, colorful growth.

• Caution: All parts of the plant are mildly toxic if ingested, and the berries can be spread by birds.
