Cordyline Atlantic Green (9cm, V3)

Cordyline Australis Atlantic Green brings an exotic look and feel to any outdoor space yet requires very little maintenance to keep it healthy and attractive. These plants tend to settle in quickly and are the perfect outdoor plant for those new to gardening or who simply don’t have the time to spend tending to all their plants.

Commonly known as the Cabbage Plant, this plant works well both in containers and planted in the ground, making it a great choice for all styles and sizes of garden. When left to its own devices it will grow branching trunks and begin to look like a small tree. The trunk will grow and the plant will develop into a barky trunk with a lush head of green foliage on top. However, Cordyline Australis Atlantic Green is simple enough to prune and with little effort you can turn one tall plant into two shorter ones.

Cordyline Australis Atlantic Green is native to New Zealand and, as you’d imagine, it prefers a bright spot in full or partial sun. It also likes to be quite sheltered from the wind and rain. If you’re content to let the plant grow tall then no pruning or deadheading is required, just move dead leaves away from the bottom when needed. 

Year round interest is provided through long slim evergreen leaves that produce a fountain like effect. Clusters of small white flowers bloom in July and August followed by small berries in Autumn. These attract wildlife to the garden and are popular with bees, butterflies and birds.
