About Cordyline australis

▼

Cordyline australis, commonly known as the Cabbage Tree or New Zealand Cabbage Palm, is a striking and versatile plant native to New Zealand. It is popular in gardens and landscapes worldwide for its architectural form, drought tolerance, and distinctive foliage.

The Cabbage Tree typically features a single, slender trunk topped with a cluster of long, sword-shaped leaves that are dark green or variegated, depending on the variety. The leaves can grow up to 1 meter (3 feet) long, creating a spiky, palm-like appearance. Over time, the plant may develop multiple trunks, adding to its sculptural look.

In late spring to early summer, Cordyline australis produces fragrant, creamy-white flowers on tall, branching panicles, followed by small, white to bluish fruits. This plant can reach heights of 10-20 meters (33-66 feet) in its native habitat, though it often remains smaller in cultivation.

Architectural Beauty & Drought Tolerance: Cordyline australis is an attractive and hardy plant that adds a bold, tropical touch to gardens and landscapes. Its dramatic foliage and easy care make it a popular choice for both beginner and experienced gardeners.

Growing Conditions

▼

Light Requirements

Cordyline australis thrives in full sun to partial shade. It performs best in sunny locations where it receives at least 4-6 hours of direct sunlight daily, but it can tolerate some shade, especially in hotter climates.

Temperature Requirements

This plant prefers mild to warm climates and can tolerate a range of temperatures, from cool to subtropical. It is hardy down to about -9 °C (15 °F), making it suitable for temperate regions. In areas with severe winters, protection or container growing may be necessary.

Soil Requirements

The Cabbage Tree prefers well-draining, fertile soil but can adapt to various soil types, including sandy or loamy soils. It thrives in slightly acidic to neutral soil conditions. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot and ensure optimal plant health.

Water Requirements

Once established, Cordyline australis is drought-tolerant and requires minimal watering. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a deep, extensive root system. Afterward, water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between watering. Overwatering should be avoided, particularly in cooler climates.

Planting & Care Guide

▼

Planting Instructions

Location: Choose a location with full sun or partial shade and well-draining soil. Hole Preparation: Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and as deep as the root ball. Backfilling: Backfill with soil and water thoroughly. Container Growing: If planting in a container, use a pot with drainage holes and a well-draining potting mix.

Fertilization Program

Feed Cordyline australis with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in the spring. An annual application of compost or organic mulch can also help maintain soil fertility and retain moisture.

Maintenance Requirements

Prune dead or damaged leaves to maintain a tidy appearance. As the plant grows, lower leaves may naturally yellow and die; these can be removed to keep the plant looking its best. In colder climates, mulch around the base to protect roots during winter.

Growing from Seeds

▼

Seed Preparation

Fresh seeds generally have the best germination rates. Soak the seeds in warm water for 24 hours before sowing to soften the seed coat and improve germination success.

Sowing Instructions

Sow the seeds in a well-draining seed-starting mix, such as a combination of sand, perlite, and peat. Plant the seeds about 1 cm (0.4 inches) deep and cover lightly with soil.

Germination Conditions

Temperature: Place the seed tray in a warm, bright area with temperatures around 20-25 °C (68-77 °F). Moisture: Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Timing: Germination can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months.

Seedling Care

Once seedlings appear, provide bright, indirect light and continue to keep the soil moist. Transplant seedlings into individual pots or into the garden once they are large enough to handle and the weather is warm enough for outdoor growth.

Great for the entire family but expensive
So far so good. The brand of boxers we had been buying changed their style and construction so we needed to find an alternative. These have held up well so far to multiple weeks of frequent washing and wearing from the entire family. We did size up from the usual 6/M we normally buy and ordered large to prevent the legs from rolling up which worked out great. Our daughter likes the length and how soft the fabric is for wearing under skirts and gym shorts and liners stay put without moving or leaking as another reviewer mentioned. Our son says they are comfortable and fit well being just supportive enough without being constrictive. We all agree that there seems to be not enough fabric in the back as they tend to be much tighter across the backside than the front and that also causes the waist band to ride lower in the back than the front. These have better seam placement than some brands we tried with no seam across the lady bits and no seam down the middle of the back side so they are more much comfortable but the cost is also much higher and that is why we're only giving it 4 stars. These will stay in the rotation until we find something cheaper that both us and the kids like.

Pregnant lady review! Soft, comfortable, cool.
Color: 03-multicolour (4-pack), Size: Large
So soft, comfortable and cool. I'm pregnant and I've gained weight in my legs. I love wearing dresses but my thighs were rubbing together too much. These are perfect to wear under dresses. I also wear them under my bibs at work and it keeps me from getting overheated but I don't have to worry about whether or not my underwear show since they just look like shorts. I wish these came in maternity. I just keep them below my belly. I'll be buying more for sure.

I want to live in these
Color: 01-multicolour (4-pack), Size: Medium
I bought 4 different sets of new underwear. Unfortunately these came last. It’s unfortunate, because if they had come first I would have cancelled all my other orders or returned them and ordered more of these. I never want to wear anything else ever again; these are the comfiest undies I’ve ever owned, I want to live in them. I can wear them under pretty much anything except leggings or very tight pants (but let’s be honest, I don’t wear those anyway.) They are incredibly soft and breathable, they wash well, don’t roll, keep my thighs from rubbing, are comfy to sleep in, and the colors were true to the photo. Just a heads up, they are on the thin side and just a bit see through in the rear. I’m 5’5” 140lbs and the mediums fit perfectly, they go about mid-thigh.

Extremely comfortable
Color: 02-multicolour (4-pack), Size: X-Large
These are by far the softest and most comfortable underwear I have ever owned. The leg portion absolutely does roll up as so many others have mentioned, however, I did not find that to be uncomfortable at all just annoying that they don’t stay in place. I bought these specific underwear to see if it would help alleviate HS symptoms at all. They have definitely helped with wicking moisture away from the skin. More time will tell if it’s truly helpful for HS. For now, I will recommend these. They are thin, breathable, butter soft, wick moisture comfortable and I would buy again…maybe in a different style next time. I have washed them several times and they seem to be holding up rather well so that is also of supreme importance given the cost of the item. Again, I would recommend this item and plan on purchasing more in a different style very soon.

Eaten by my Thighs
Color: 04-multicolour (4-pack), Size: X-Large
I wanted to love them. Sadly they have let me down. Pros: natural breathable fabric , super soft and comfortable, cotton panty gussets for feminine health and panty liners will stick!! Yay:). And the colors! They are great! But here’s the Con. And it’s the con of all cons. THEY RIDE UP!! Eaten by my thighs. I’m 5’6” and in the general area of 175. I fluctuate depending on how many times I visit the bakery! :) I don’t have a thigh gap but it is not a super tight thigh squeeze. I seldom have thigh climb but these do. I tried two different sizes to see if that made a difference. Nope. I was miserable at a recent theme park in these. I was wearing long heavy dresses and it was quite awkward to yank these legs down non stop. They feel amazing and they have all the requirements 1. Soft 2. Comfortable and stretches with you 3. Breathable with nice thin fabric. Not bulky 4. Natural fibers 5. Great colors If you are a person that is not blessed with Thunder Thighs, please order these. They are great! I wear them at home and to locations that I will not be doing a lot of walking at. I have washed them so many times and they look like new still.
