Cordyline australis Peko

Cordyline australis 'Peko'

DESCRIPTION:   Green strappy foliage with a bright pink stripe on the underside of the leaf. 
USES:   Elegant, stately and architecturally pleasing and great for the accent garden.  As a contrasting plant for a colourful garden and massed together for a splash of colour
CARE:  Remove dead foliage and cut back in spring if they get tall.  Cutting all foliage off is fine as the plant will regrow from the stem.
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.  Surprisingly tolerant of cold and dry conditions but growth is restricted in these conditions.
HEIGHT:  2 metre but can be cut to required height
YOUR PLANTS: These plants are tube-stock plants, healthy young plants with new roots that will establish quickly in your garden. The average size of your plants will be 15 -25 cm including the pot height of 80mm high and 42 mm wide.
