Description How to Grow More Info Delivery

Arching, sword-shaped foliage tops the single, upright stem of Corydalis australis to create an architectural, small tree. Mature specimens produce panicles of fragrant, creamy-white flowers from July to August that contrast nicely with the dark green leaves. This dramatic, evergreen tree is perfectly hardy in milder parts of the UK, making a fine feature plant for courtyard gardens and exotic planting schemes. The Cabbage Palm is a common feature of seaside landscapes, tolerating salt-laden winds with ease. Height: 6m (19'). Spread: (13').

Grow Cordylines on fertile, well drained soil. Choose a sheltered position in full sun. Cordylines are particularly well suited to mild coastal locations but do enjoy a fertile soil, so it is well worth incorporating some well rotted manure into the soil when planting.

Feed and water regularly until fully established. Once established, Cordylines need little attention, but will require some winter protection should temperatures dip below-5C (23F). In cold areas it may be preferable to grow Cordylines in large patio containers that can be moved undercover during the coldest months.
