Cordyline ‘Dancing Paso Doble’

Cordyline 'Dancing Paso Doble' is a subtropical cabbage palm with dramatic deep purple foliage with hot pink edges.

Cordyline ‘Dancing Paso Doble’ is just as exciting and dramatic as the dance! Its common name is cabbage palm but that doesn’t do any justice to its stunning dark purple foliage with hot pink edges or its upright, spiky, subtropical growth that can eventually develop trunks to 5 feet high. Great for subtropical drama. Flowers don’t develop for 15-20 years. Hardy to zone 8 but best protected during the winter in the house, greenhouse, sunroom or in containers. Makes a good houseplant.
