Nandina
Nandina is a ubiquitous shrub but for good reason. They grow very well in our California climate but I was first introduced to nandina in Texas where the temperature range is much more dramatic.
I like the seasonal changes of the nandina. The new spring growth is a lovely deep rose color. In the fall, the color of the leave will change again. Sprays of white flowers on pink-tinged stems will develop into lovely red berries in the fall. Let some of the berries drop and you will probably have some volunteers sprout.

Hi,
Really nice blog you have. If you don't mind I'm going to link to your site. By the way, the font size looks good. I changed mine last week to a larger size.
