Cordylines work in all kinds of gardens. They suit modern planting schemes, gravel gardens, coastal locations and relaxed mixed borders. Their strong form creates instant scale and lifts companion plants beautifully. Most varieties show good wind tolerance and cope well with UK conditions when given a sheltered spot. Their slow, steady growth also means customers can enjoy long term impact without constant pruning or shaping.
Planting is simple. Choose a bright, sheltered position with free draining soil. A cordyline appreciates extra protection in colder regions, so a layer of fleece on the coldest nights helps maintain leaf quality. Water well through the first season, then reduce as the plant establishes. In pots, a multi purpose compost with added grit works well. Feed lightly in spring to support new growth. With this gentle care, cordylines reward gardeners with years of strong, architectural interest.
There’s a cordyline for every garden and style. Cordyline ‘Kiwi’ lifts planting schemes with its fresh, variegated foliage, while ‘Charlie Boy’ delivers bold, upright colour that makes an instant focal point. ‘Torbay Dazzler’ brings a bright, striped look ideal for modern borders, and the ever-reliable ‘Red Star’ adds rich, architectural depth to pots, patios and gravel gardens. Each variety offers strength, versatility and year round impact, making them an excellent choice for anyone looking to buy cordyline plants that deliver lasting value.
