Features and benefits

- Cordylines usually only blossom in maturity, but they are beautifully exotic with their short stems that carry an explosion of tiny white or cream flowers
- This plant attracts bees and butterflies with the essential nutrients in its pollen and nectar. These insects also help fertilise your plants and increase fruit and seed development. Planting just a few of these in your garden will provide crucial nourishment for these key pollinators
- Expert growers nurtured this plant lovingly for 3 years to ensure its maturity and quality
- In warm summers, mature cordylines will produce spikes of tiny flowers. The small round fruits that follow provide food for various garden birds, including blackbirds and thrushes
