Harlequin Hawaiian Ti

Harlequin Hawaiian Ti (Cordyline fruticosa ‘Harlequin’) is a tropical foliage plant with striking variegated leaves in yellow, pink, burgundy, and green. There is a huge variety of different Hawaiian Ti or Cordyline with ‘Harlequin’ being a particularly striking and exotic choice to brighten up a part shade area. Plant yours in bright indirect light in fertile well drained soil. They do not like soggy areas and prefer to dry a bit in between waterings. Fertilize with Espoma Plant-Tone to promote lush foliage. Harlequin can reach 4’-6’ tall and, as with all cordyline varieties, their height can be maintained by cutting back the stem to promote side shoot and a fuller plant. As your plant grows taller you will notice some leaf shed toward the bottom. If a fuller look is desired, you can take the cut stem and stick it in the ground toward the base of the original plant where it will take root and give you a full to ground look.
