Although evergreen and tolerant of both cold and heat, nandinas are so much more than that. The majority of varieties are distinguished by their lush green foliage, which turn fiery red and orange in the winter. The 'Twilight' Nandina, on the other hand, changes everything and adds a wonderful touch of sophistication to your environment with its gorgeous variegated green leaf covered in white. The new growth is a gorgeous pink that persists throughout the warm season, adding to the already vivid scene.
