Cordyline Racemosa
''Cordyline'' is a genus of about 15 species of woody monocotyledonous flowering plants in family Asparagaceae, subfamily Lomandroideae. The subfamily has previously been treated as a separate family Laxmanniaceae, or Lomandraceae. Other authors have placed the genus in the Agavaceae (now Agavoideae). ''Cordyline'' is native to the western Pacific Ocean region, from New Zealand, eastern Australia, southeastern Asia and Polynesia, with one species found in southeastern South America. The name ''Cordyline'' comes from the Greek word ''kordyle'', meaning "club," a reference to the enlarged underground stems or rhizomes. Species , the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families accepts 24 species: * ''Cordyline angustissima'' K.Schum. – New Guinea * ''Cordyline australis'' (G.Forst.) Endl.

Cordyline Fruticosa
''Cordyline fruticosa'' is an evergreen flowering plant in the family Asparagaceae. The plant is of great cultural importance to the traditional animistic religions of Austronesian and Papuan peoples of the Pacific Islands, New Zealand, Island Southeast Asia, and Papua New Guinea. It is also cultivated for food, traditional medicine, and as an ornamental for its variously colored leaves. It is identified by a wide variety of common names, including ti plant, palm lily, cabbage palm. Description Ti is a palm-like plant growing up to tall with an attractive fan-like and spirally arranged cluster of broadly elongated leaves at the tip of the slender trunk. The leaves range from red to green and variegated forms. It is a woody plant with leaves (rarely ) long and wide at the top of a woody stem. It produces long panicles of small scented yellowish to red flowers that mature into red berries. Taxonomy ''Cordyline fruticosa'' was formerly listed as part of the families Aga ...

World Checklist Of Selected Plant Families
The World Checklist of Selected Plant Families (usually abbreviated to WCSP) is an "international collaborative programme that provides the latest peer reviewed and published opinions on the accepted scientific names and synonyms of selected plant families." Maintained by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, it is available online, allowing searches for the names of families, genera and species, as well as the ability to create checklists. The project traces its history to work done in the 1990s by Kew researcher Rafaël Govaerts on a checklist of the genus ''Quercus''. Influenced by the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation, the project expanded. , 173 families of seed plants were included. Coverage of monocotyledon families is complete; other families are being added. There is a complementary project called the International Plant Names Index (IPNI), in which Kew is also involved. The IPNI aims to provide details of publication and does not aim to determine which are accepted spec ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Cordyline Indivisa
''Cordyline indivisa'' is a monocot tree endemic to New Zealand, where it is called mountain cabbage tree or bush flax. It is also known as the broad-leaved cabbage tree, and in the Māori language as . Distribution In the North Island ''Cordyline indivisa'' occurs from south of Kohukohunui in the Hunua Ranges and Te Moehau (Coromandel Peninsula) but becomes common only south of Raukumara Ranges and the central Volcanic Plateau. In the South Island it is widespread and common along the north and western portions of the island, but occurs more locally in the drier eastern regions. Description ''C. indivisa'' is very distinctive. The species can be distinguished from all other ''Cordyline'' species by its very broad blue-grey leaves, and its smaller, tightly compacted inflorescence which is produced from beneath the foliage. It forms a stout tree up to tall, with a trunk from in diameter. The stem is usually unbranched, or has very few branches. The leaves are long, and from wi ...

Cordyline Diffusa
''Cordyline banksii'' (forest cabbage tree, ''tī ngahere'') is a monocot tree endemic to New Zealand. The specific epithet ''banksii'' refers to the 18th-century botanist Joseph Banks.

Cordyline Cannifolia
''Cordyline cannifolia'', is one of several plants known as the Palm Lily. It is an evergreen Australian plant. This shrub can grow to 5 metres tall, although in other situations it may be fully grown at only 60 cm tall. Found only in Queensland and the Northern Territory in rainforests and wet eucalyptus forests, the natural range of distribution is from near Rockhampton to Cape York. The leaves are variable in size, from 20 to 50 cm long, and 5 to 12 cm wide. The leaf stems also vary in size, from 5 to 20 cm long. A good feature for identification is the glaucous under-leaf colour. Like many of the Australian Cordyline plants, the dark red berries are another appealing ornamental feature. They're about a centimetre in diameter. For the garden, it is best suited to a warm and moist situation. Being a tropical plant, it is not suited to frost and cold winds.
