Cordyline banksii Electric Flash
DESIGN EDGE® is a fashionable group of plants that provide an instant sculptural statement. Their coloured leaves combined with statuesque appearance provide a dramatic visual effect all year round. Their long upright pointed leaves allow you to create great effects in Mediterranean, tropical and formal styled gardens. They contrast superbly with shaped hedges, conjuring a relaxed and stylish look.
Electric Flash is striking!
Following in the ‘Electric’ style, Electric Flash is a compact, clump forming Cordyline that doesn’t develop a bare single stemmed trunk. Instead it develops side shoots that together with its slightly arching leaves provides a denser foliage plant.
This Cordyline banksii generates multiple shoots to form a clump of green and chocolate striped leaves. Compared to Cordyline australis varieties which can grow in excess of 3 m tall, Electric Flash only grows to 1.2 m in height.
Strong architectural presence
Residential and commercial gardeners will love Electric Flash’s incredible cream and chocolate striped foliage. It will add style to large commercial plantings because of its strong colour. Up close, it's chocolate and cream stripes are easily recognized and will provide the visual appeal desired around patios, terraces and building entrances.
Electric Flash will become an important part of modern outdoor living areas.
Exceptional performance in harsh conditions
Once well established after planting, Electric Flash is extremely heat tolerant withstanding temperatures in excess of 40 degrees Celsius. It is cold hardy to 5 degrees Celsius. Below 0 degrees Celsius the foliage will die back with regrowth from the stem base dependant on the amount of protection provided to the roots, and the age of the plant. Climate Zones: 1 to 4.
