Cordyline australis (Cabbage Tree) 'Lime Passion'
Bursting with luminous colour, this striking architectural plant produces a fountain of slender leaves in vibrant lime green with golden yellow margins that brighten any garden space. The bold foliage forms a compact, palm like shape that maintains its dazzling hues throughout the seasons, making it perfect as a focal point in borders or patio containers. More colourful than traditional cabbage trees, its upright yet manageable growth habit suits smaller gardens and urban spaces beautifully. Thriving in full sun to partial shade, it adapts to most well drained soils and shows excellent resistance to coastal winds and urban conditions. With its eye catching foliage and elegant structure, this exceptional plant brings year round tropical flair to modern and traditional garden designs alike.
