Monrovia® Lime Passion Cordyline is a variegated broadleaf perennial often used as a house plant with long lace-shaped foliage that is lime green with crisp limes of creamy yellow edging. It rarely flowers indoors. The best color occurs with bright indirect light and consistently moist well-drained peaty soils. When planted in the ground in its hardy zones, it can gain a palm tree-like habit over time.
Syn. with Dracaena australis.
