Cordyline Red Fountain 200MM

Cordyline banksii x pumilio var. 'Red Fountain'

I am Cordyline Red Fountain. My family originated from Northern New Zealand.

Habit Strappy
Plant family Agavaceae
I am a compact, clump forming Cordyline with glossy burgundy strappy foliage that cascades to form a ball shape. I produce large sprays of fragrant small, showy star-shaped blush pink flowers in late spring and summer. I am a great choice where vibrant colour is desired whether in a pot, in the garden, mass planted or as a border. I am very hardy in a range of conditions and soils but appreciate good drainage.
I am popular and will make you happy because...
I am great for planting in pots
I am a terrific accent plant adding colour and drama to the garden
