We are very intrigued by this Mexican species after having grown it for numerous years in our light woodland, with distinctive and refined pinnate foliage to 10ö in length along stems to 5 ft. and, in midsummer, large blossoms of white/yellow appearing in spidery racemes, very close in appearance to its close relative, Nandina domestica. We thank our friend Mark Fillan in the U.K. for offering us seed of this species from the highlands of Mexico. Full sun or partial shade in any draining soil.
Finely textured, extremely glossy pinnate, rather spiny foliage emerging in coppery tones is densely held on compact shrubs to 4 ft. In early spring, very pretty, congested panicles of rich yellow flowers are produced in striking folial complement. It is a superb, drought tolerant shrub for full sun or very light shade, that I have come to cherish in our own garden. Always draws comment.
Seedlings from an exceptional form in our garden with a brilliant white underface to the foliage and sensational sprays of red and yellow flowers along pendulous racemes to 15ö, followed by excellent crops of large succulent whitish blue fruit. As these are seedlings, there will be variation amongst this lot. Full sun or light shade in moist, humus-rich draining soil; this is found growing naturally on wet limestone cliffs in shade.
