Description
Black Knight Cordyline (Cordyline australis ‘Black Knight’) is a striking, architectural plant known for its deep burgundy to almost black, sword-like foliage. This evergreen, palm-like shrub adds a dramatic, tropical flair to gardens, containers, and landscapes.
Reaching heights of 4 to 6 feet (or more in warmer climates), it provides bold vertical interest and contrasts beautifully with lighter or variegated plants. Black Knight Cordyline thrives in full sun to partial shade and well-draining soil, making it a low-maintenance choice for modern gardens, coastal landscapes, and patio planters. Drought-tolerant once established, it brings year-round color and texture to any outdoor space.
