Instructions
Top Tip
Green-leaved cordylines thrive best in full sun, while those with coloured leaves prefer light shade.
How to Water
Water regularly during the first growing season. After this, cordylines are relatively drought tolerant and only need to be watered during particularly dry spells.
How to Plant
Plant cordylines in the ground or in containers in a spot that enjoys full sun or partial shade with moist but well-draining soil. Enrich the soil with well-rotted organic matter and dig a hole around twice as wide as the root ball. Position the plant so the top of the root ball is at soil level then backfill with soil and compost, gently firm down, and water in well.
