Goldstream Nandina
Nandina domestica ‘Goldstream’
1 gallon pot
 
A bright and eye-catching evergreen shrub, Goldstream nandina is valued for its vivid golden-yellow foliage that brings strong color to the landscape year-round. New growth emerges especially vibrant with cream tips, creating a glowing effect that stands out in both containers and garden beds, fading to coppery leaves in the winter. Its compact, upright habit makes it ideal for borders, foundation plantings, and accent use where consistent color is desired.
 
This variety performs best in well-drained soil and adapts well to a range of light conditions, with the brightest color developing in more sun. It is low maintenance, requires little pruning, and is drought tolerant once established. Unlike some nandina varieties, it typically produces little to no fruit, making it a cleaner choice for many garden settings.
