Cabbage tree

  • Origin: New Zealand
  • Latin: Cordyline australis

The graceful lanceolate leaves form a fountain of foliage! The plant is quite frost-resistant; I've had it on my roof terrace for years. After a few years, a huge tuft of white flowers forms in the heart of the bright green leaves: a real eye-catcher! Eventually, a small trunk will form.
