Editor's Note

Some resources list Nandina berries as poisonous if ingested.

To date, no cases reported in humans, but berries are possibly toxic to cats and some grazing animals.

We tend to err on the side of caution in PlantFiles, and the danger notation in the details above is to warn gardeners, parents, and pet owners to look further for more information.

Colorful leaves in winter. This dwarf variety does not produce berries and hence is not invasive, unlike standard nandina.
