If you take the dead fronds fold them over a couple of times and use one end to loop around the middle and tie the lot together. Makes great kindling for fires. The dead fronds can also be used to weave as an alternative to willow etc.
Hi, the trick is to leave the berries on the tree until they fully ripen and they turn white - here in south Wales I find we get best results by picking them around midwinter (nice boxing day job!) we have done a couple of videos about picking and sowing the seeds here's one ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5WWfI72U8K8.html and this 2nd one shows the germination results in spring ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YKb5CKkaaoE.html Hope this helps?
Hi thanks for your comment, just checking as we weren’t using any soil in this video was your comment meant for another one of our videos … maybe one where we growing pots … sorry just want to do my best to understand and answer your question .. Thanks, hope to hear from you soon Roger
@@A.nasierkhan I don’t think I have really covered any soil tips in my Cordyline videos … so I need to do a video about that … would that help? Are you growing Cordylines in pots outside or in the garden soil? Also can I ask where you are living …are you in the uk?
@@rogthegardener1 yes that would be nice to inform the viewers about the way you make your soil and what kind if soil you use. Well i live in the The Netherlands the weather is complete different.
@@A.nasierkhan I think you can get colder temperatures, but thanks for the information … I am trying to recall if I have seen large cordylines growing outside on my trips to the Netherlands … you have some great gardens there!
Hi Roger I have a cordyline palm I recently notice new shoots growing from the base of my tree and up the stem.. Can I remove these without the tree damaging? Thanks in advance, James
Hi how did there red corderyline seedlings you had go on,did they survive.i planted seeds off mine about two weeks ago as you recommended.no signs of anything growing yet.i put them in my conservatory with a piece of glass on top for a bit extra warmth,as it gets freezing her in east Lancashire xxxx
Hiya - those red-ish seedlings were actually green, they just had a hint of bronze to them leaves when they first started growing and then reverted to green - all doing well! Well done - conservatory should be fine as you describe but get ready to remove the piece of glass when they start germinating as thye could get scorched - I wouldn't expect to see seedlings until late march / April ... I look forward to hearing some good news in spring!
