Product information

    This beautiful red star cordyline instantly adds excitement to your borders or containers. The deep red, long arching leaves emerge from a centre stem creating a bold statement with an attractive structure. Cordylines add a tropical feel to your garden and as the lower leaves drop off, a trunk begins to form, eventually maturing into a tree with large, pom-pom heads made of long strappy leaves.

    Features and benefits

    • These cordylines have been selected as part of our impact collection for their gorgeous architectural form and evergreen nature that will add interest to borders and containers all year round
    • This Cordyline is ideal for any sunny location, whether in a border or container, but it prefers a relatively sheltered spot
    • Cordylines usually only blossom in maturity, but they are beautifully exotic with their short stems that carry an explosion of tiny white or cream flowers
    • This plant attracts bees and butterflies with the essential nutrients in its pollen and nectar. These insects also help fertilise your plants and increase fruit and seed development. Planting just a few of these in your garden will provide crucial nourishment for these key pollinators
    • Expert growers nurtured this plant lovingly for 3 years to ensure its maturity and quality
    • In warm summers, mature cordylines will produce spikes of tiny flowers. The small round fruits that follow provide food for various garden birds, including blackbirds and thrushes
