FAQs
FAQs
Is Cordyline Terminalis toxic to pets?
Yes - it's mildly to moderately toxic to cats and dogs if ingested (contains saponins) and can cause vomiting, drooling, or depression. Keep it away from pets that chew plants.
How do I tell Cordyline apart from Dracaena?
The easiest way is by the roots - Cordyline roots are white, while Dracaena roots are yellow or orange. The two are commonly sold under overlapping names.
Why is my plant losing leaves?
Cordyline is a jungle plant that likes warmth and humidity - leaf drop is often a sign the air is too dry or cold; try raising both temperature and humidity.
How do I stop it from getting leggy?
Trim individual stems back in a staggered pattern over time so the plant stays leafy with stems of varying heights.
How often should I repot it?
In spring, or every other spring as it needs it.
