Dark and moody wine-purple foliage makes an excellent foil for brighter-leaved shrubs or red, orange and purple flowering plants. Easygoing and low maintenance wherever you site it - containers or in the borders, full sun all day or part shade.

Cordyline australis atropurpurea

APPEARANCE :  Dark wine-purple slender long leaves in a rosette. Develops a slender trunk with age.
USE FOR :  Plant en masse for impact, or as a contrast accent plant with gold or silver-leaved plants and wine-coloured flowers.
CLIMATE : Surprisingly tolerant of cold and dry conditions but growth is restricted in these conditions. Should come through an overnight frost.
PLANTING : Cordylines are surprisingly hardy and worth a go in most protected areas but will prefer full sun to part shade.  Plant in a well drained soil, mulch and fertilise when planting. 
CARE :   Remove any dead foliage and cut back in spring if they get tall.  Cutting foliage off is fine as the plant will regrow from the stem.
MATURE HEIGHT & WIDTH :  2 m H x 1m W but can be cut to required height.
YOUR PLANTS : These are tubestock plants, healthy young plants with new roots that will establish quickly in your garden. The pot size is 80mm high and 42 mm wide.
You can see an example in the image gallery.
