Cordyline Care Guide 

Cordyline is a really unique genus with such unqiue folliage. I don´t want to waste any more of your time, so here is how you care for it:

------------------------------------

WATERING:

Cordyline can be picky about low temperatures but can handle drought very well. I suggest watering this plant once every 2 weeks, and when you water it, do not give it a little bit! This can dry out the rest of the roots, leading to roots drying out and the plant to slow down their growth. Like they say, ¨ Go big or go home ¨, you should give this plant water until the water comes out of the drainage holes. This plant won´t mind being in a footbath for half an hour, it will only make sure the plant is hydrated and happy, like your skin must be.

------------------------------------

PROPAGATION:

Stem cuttings usually works the best for these plants; take a cutting somewhere on the stem, make sure the cutting has lots of nodes on it.

------------------------------------

LIGHT REQUIREMENTS:

Cordyline plants love bright, indirect light to full sun. The more sun it gets, the more vibrant and colorful the leaves will be. Bright indirect light basically means that the plant gets lots and lots of light, but not directly on the leaves. If the sun is direct for too long, the leaf can burn, and the leaf can´t go back to normal.

------------------------------------

BLOOM:

Cordyline plants produce small, fragrant flowers in the summer months. The flower is really pretty in my opinion, but it is just a bonus, and i´d just grow the Cordyline for its stunning leaves and not for its flowers.

MEDIUMS:

A well-draining soil mix will be great for this plant, with ingredients like worm casting, coco chips, perlite and leca. Leca stands for ¨Lightweight Expanded Clay Aggregate¨, and takes care of drainage and can hold moisture like coco chips and perlite. coco chips are small, chunky pieces of coconut husk, and perlite is made from expanded volcanic glass.
