Cordyline australis cv. Red Star

Frost hardy selection of Cordyline australis, with spectacular burgundy red leaves. It eventually becomes a tall branched palm-like tree, hardy to frost!

It grows outdoors in Temperate to Subtropical conditions and does equally well in London or in the Canary Islands.

This Cordyline can also grow indoors as a house plant. It stands both full sun and shade and even bright indoor conditions. As all cordylines, it can be kept low by pruning or air layering the shoots that become too tall. It will sprout new shoots from the base or from the cut.

The plant we offer is about 70-80 cm tall and it is about 2 year old from cutting, grpwed in a 20 cm pot.
