The Firepower Nandina is an evergreen shrub that is prized for its red fall foliage that lasts through winter. During the Spring and Summer the Foliage of the Firepower is green. ---------- This item includes one 2.5 Quart Firepower Nandina (live plants) in plastic pots with soil. The pots will be wrapped in a poly bag to retain moisture and hold any soil that shakes lose in shipping. The plant will be shipped in a cardboard box that has been designed to hold the plant in place to reduce any chance of damage in transit. As soon as the plant arrives it should be unpackaged, un-bagged, and watered. --------These plants ship from the Gulf Coast of Alabama. We recommend that customers outside of the southeastern United States order during the milder times of year (Spring/Fall) to prevent heat/cold stress during transit.
