This basal branching cordyline combines the rugged easy-care attributes of its cordyline cousins with an unusual mix of shiny dark color, compact bushy form, short stems and cascading grass-like leaves.
Noteworthy CharacteristicsThis is a low-maintenance, high impact plant. Festival™ Burgundy makes a great container plant and can even be wintered indoors as an easy-care house plant.
CarePrefers well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. If grown indoors, provide bright filtered or indirect light and moderate water. Remove dead leaves as required.
