Product description
Cordyline ‘Can Can’ also known as Cabbage Palm is an interesting variety that stands out with its large, arching evergreen foliage. The new leaves emerge with a pink-red variegation, changing colour as the leaves mature to silver-green hue edged with cream-white variegation. This blend of beautiful colours creates a unique display that should last the whole year.
Plant in moist, well-drained soil and keep in full or partial sun. Grows best in a warm, sheltered position indoors under glass. If planting outdoors requires mulching, shelter and protection from frost.
Please Note: When purchasing plants please consider that each live item is unique and may therefore differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only. Ongoing plant maintenance within our nursery is essential, meaning some lines are pruned back at certain times of the year to encourage new growth.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

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.
