Cordyline Nigra (1L to 1.5L) is a dramatic evergreen plant (1.5-2.5m) prized for its deep burgundy, almost black, sword-like foliage that creates a bold architectural statement. Ideal for borders, containers, or as a focal point in modern Auckland gardens. Grow in full sun to partial shade in well-drained soil with moderate water. Thrives in warm, sheltered positions and is hardy to light frosts.
