Description
Cordyline australis 'Charlie Boy' is an eye-catching evergreen shrub with slender, sword-like leaves of dark green with subtle reddish tints. It adds vertical interest and a tropical touch to gardens and patios.
Thriving in full sun to part shade with well-drained soil, it is fairly hardy but may benefit from protection during severe winters. The flowers are minor in display, so 'Charlie Boy' is best appreciated for its striking foliage shape and colour.
