Nice pictures Bill!drool.gifCordylines are quite hardy too, mine survived 24F under canopy with no damage and another I left out to test resprouted vigorously from the root after 21F (and a week below 32F).

Whatever you do, don't spray Cordylines with Neem oil. The other day I spritzed a few mealy bugs & now I have a dead Cordyline.

I used to have a few good ones, but they are all too shaded now, and have lost their vigour and colour...time to do some transplanting I think...

Here's a couple more...

This one is 'Schubertii' which turns into quite a large plant...mine is about 12 ft tall now.
