Where to buy tall cordyline australis in USA?

[MTW]

 

Hello, I’m doing a landscaping project that needs a 6-10 ft cordyline australis, I’ve searched all over online for a container farm or any place that sells them but I can only find ones in the UK. Does anyone know of a place anywhere in the US that sells the size cordyline I’m looking for?

Doubt you'll find any.  They send a long tap root down and are not happy with transplanting.  Generally you have to buy the small ones sold at the big box that are non trunking.

I see these in florida, small sized most common. Grab small sized now, watch it grow? Sorry not much help with big sized in your area .

I have never seen them that size for sale, but for what it is worth, I planted some 3 gallon plants from a big box store 2 years ago for ~$20 each and they are already well over 5 feet tall and have produced 3 new plants from the side shoots that developed and I cut off and replanted.  All 5 of the original plants developed side shoots near the base after the first year and the ones I cut off have regrown from the same spot. Really low maintenance other than pulling off dead lower leaves. I really like these in both the red and yellow variegated "torbay".
