Cordyline 'Electric Pink' , Dracena Palm. This outstanding plant is not for the weak of heart. A bold accent in the garden, multiple shades of pink, white and red bronze. Forms a multitrunked clump to 4 ft. tall and wide, much shorter than it's other Cordyline relatives. Will do well anywhere in the Bay Area, Sacramento Valley and Foothills. Full sun to partial shade, don't overwater, I've had good luck planting on a slight mound. Moderate to fast growth rate. Excellent in containers. Can be used in Tropical gardens, Mediterranean gardens and Contemporary gardens.

It's funny, I love this plant, it is stunning in the right place. But another designer friend of mine absolutely hates this plant! Says it looks like a fake plant and the color gives him headaches, but then he confessed he doesn't like anything that feels tropical.....hmmm, he's not going to like global warming....
