'Bali Red' cabbage tree (Cordyline fruticosa 'Bali Red') is an annual for container, specimen, and accent use. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes part sun to full shade and average to moist, loamy soil. It is evergreen and fragrant. It blooms in early to late spring and in early to late summer.

Pairs well with Redwood sorrel, Hardy fuchsia, and Dragon Wing Pink begonia.
