Obsession Nandina (Nandina domestica 'Seika')

Red new growth, all year, on a plant you never have to prune - that is why Obsession has become one of Australia's most planted small shrubs. This modern sacred bamboo holds vivid scarlet young foliage above deep green older leaves, giving constant two-tone colour in a compact, upright form.

🌱 Why Gardeners Love Obsession Nandina

✔ Vivid Red New Growth - flushes of brilliant scarlet foliage through the growing season, intensifying in cool weather.

✔ Compact & Upright - dense growth to around 60-70cm tall and wide.

✔ No Pruning Needed - naturally tidy, holding its shape without clipping.

✔ Very Hardy - tolerates frost, heat and dry periods once established.

✔ Year-Round Interest - evergreen colour in every season, not just a spring show.

🏡 How to Use Obsession Nandina in Your Garden

✅ Mass Planting - blocks of red-tipped foliage are a landscaper favourite.

✅ Low Borders - a colourful, no-clip edge along paths and drives.

✅ Pots & Planters - striking container colour for entries and courtyards.

✅ Contrast Planting - red tones pop against silver, lime and dark green neighbours.

Easy Planting & Care Guide

  • Position: Full sun to part shade in most Australian climates; more sun gives stronger red colour.
  • Spacing: Plant 50-60cm apart for massed beds and borders.
  • Best Planting Time: Autumn or spring, or any mild time of year.
  • Watering & Care: Water regularly through the first summer, then only in extended dry spells. A little slow-release fertiliser in spring keeps colour strong.

❔ FAQs About Obsession Nandina

How is Obsession different from older nandinas?
It is more compact, denser and holds far more intense red new growth than traditional forms, with the colour appearing through the year rather than only in winter.

How many do I need for a border?
Space plants 50-60cm apart. Our packs of 6, 10 and 3 (larger sizes) are designed for exactly this kind of mass planting.

Does it flower or fruit?
Rarely and insignificantly - Obsession is grown for foliage, and its minimal fruiting is an advantage over older seedy nandina varieties.
