Cordyline fruticosa 'Tango' Plant Care
Light- Cordyline needs bright light, but avoid direct sunlight in unhabituated plants.
Soil- Cordyline needs a rich, well-drained high-quality potting mix with a pH of 6 to 6.5. If you move the plant outdoors during warmer months, make sure the outdoor soil drains well and any threat of frost has passed.
Water- It is important to keep the soil continuously moist. Reduce watering during the winter and water your plant whenever the soil surface starts to feel dry.
Fertilizer- These plants can be fed in the spring with slow-release pellets. You can feed the plant weekly during the growing season with a liquid 20-20-20 fertilizer at half-strength. Do not fertilize during the winter.
Temperature and Humidity- Cordyline thrives in temperatures above 62 degrees Fahrenheit and prefers a high humidity environment.
