Cordyline 'Black Beauty' Plant Description

Cordyline Black Beauty is an eye-catching evergreen plant known for its dramatic, deep purple to almost black foliage. This tropical plant features long, lance-shaped leaves that emerge with a rich burgundy hue before darkening to their signature near-black shade, creating a striking contrast in gardens and containers.

A slow-growing and low-maintenance variety, Black Beauty thrives in warm, humid conditions and prefers well-draining soil with partial to full sun exposure. It can reach a height of 3–5 feet (90–150 cm), making it an excellent choice for adding vertical interest to landscapes or as an indoor statement plant.

With its bold foliage and tolerance for a variety of growing conditions, Cordyline Black Beauty is a popular choice for tropical-themed gardens, borders, or as a focal point in patio planters. Regular watering, occasional pruning, and protection from harsh cold temperatures will help maintain its vibrant appearance.
