Description
The Nandina domestica 'Lemon Lime' is a new variety of sacred bamboo that is particularly bright. With its spring foliage ranging from chartreuse green to lime green, it is perfect for brightening up shaded areas in the garden. This evergreen bush is also interesting for its bushy, dense, and branching habit, as well as its small size. While this variety rarely flowers (in discreet panicles), its presence and fresh colour are enough to appreciate it in flower beds or in large pots on the balcony or terrace.
The 'Lemon Lime' sacred bamboo belongs to the berberidaceae family. It is a very recent variety, obtained in the USA and distinguished by a Gold Medal at Plantarium 2014 in Boskoop, Netherlands. This small bush is a compact and curiously coloured form of the Nandina domestica native to India, China, and Japan. Its growth is quite slow, and its mature size will not exceed 1m (3.3ft) in all directions. This plant, with its round and particularly bushy silhouette, forms erect and branching stems reminiscent of bamboo, adorned with narrow and pointed leaflets. The plant is beautiful all year round: in spring, the young leaves are light green to lime green, turning yellow before the green tone intensifies. It occasionally blooms in June-July, in the form of conical panicles of white-cream flowers, rarely followed by clusters of shiny red fruits.
The Nandina domestica Lemon Lime is valuable for lighting up shaded or semi-shaded areas, especially since it tolerates the presence of tree roots quite well. It can be associated with other sacred bamboos with redder tones (Richmond, Obsessed Seika), a Mexican orange, rudbeckia, Spiraea japonica 'Little Princess', Loropetalum, Euphorbia griffithii 'Fire Glow', or orange daylilies. Each of these scenes will be a triumph. This small bush will also be magnificent in a large pot on the terrace, in a non-scorching exposure, and well-watered. In a small hedge, it can be accompanied by Abelia Edward Goucher, Japanese Azaleas, Deutzia crenata 'Nikko', or Sarcococca hookeriana Humilis for example.

Planting and care
Plant Sacred Bamboo in soft, deep, well-drained, slightly acidic, neutral, or even slightly alkaline soil, moderately dry to moist. Once well established, this plant adapts perfectly to summer drought if the soil is deep. It prefers sunny situations that are not scorching, or partial shade. Avoid drying winds and choose a location sheltered from severe cold. This bush is hardy down to -15°C (5°F) under optimal conditions but protect its base with a thick mulch of dead leaves before winter in the coldest regions. If the above-ground part freezes, prune the plant to ground level in February-March. Otherwise pruning should be limited to removing dead wood and excess or weak branches in winter.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
