Cordyline (Cabbage Tree) - Simpson's Nurseries Ltd

Cordyline, often called Cabbage Tree or Torbay Palm, is a striking evergreen plant that adds a bold architectural element to the garden. With its upright, fountain-like form and sword-shaped leaves, Cordyline creates a dramatic silhouette that works beautifully in contemporary gardens, coastal settings, or tropical-inspired landscapes. The foliage varies by variety, ranging from green to vibrant burgundy, pink, or striped forms, adding colour and texture year-round. In mature plants, tall flower spikes emerge in summer, bearing fragrant, creamy-white flowers that attract pollinators.

Cordyline is particularly popular for its adaptability, thriving in pots, borders, and urban gardens. Its ability to withstand salty coastal winds and urban pollution makes it a durable choice for diverse environments. With its eye-catching appearance and minimal care needs, Cordyline is a fantastic option for adding both structure and elegance to the garden.
