Cordyline ‘Lime Passion’ – Vibrant Variegation for Bold, Year-Round Impact

Cordyline ‘Lime Passion’ is an eye-catching evergreen with a fresh, luminous palette of lime-green, cream, and soft yellow that brightens even the dullest corners of the garden. Its long, arching leaves form a graceful upright fountain, creating instant height, texture, and a relaxed, tropical feel.

Perfect as a focal point in borders or as a statement plant in large containers, ‘Lime Passion’ brings a modern, architectural elegance to any outdoor space. The bold variegation glows beautifully in sunlight, while its evergreen habit ensures year-round presence and structure.

As it matures, this Cordyline slowly develops a slender trunk, adding height and enhancing its palm-like appearance. Tolerant of coastal winds, dry spells, and urban conditions, it thrives in sunny, free-draining spots and offers high impact with minimal effort. Hardy in mild UK gardens, it’s ideal for sheltered courtyards, patios, and contemporary designs.

Fresh, stylish, and wonderfully low-maintenance, Cordyline ‘Lime Passion’ is a brilliant choice for adding colour, movement, and modern flair to the garden.
