Of iconic status, the cabbage tree deserves a place in every style of garden, from formal to native, arid to tropical. Young trees are single trunked with long, narrow mid-green grass-like leaves. As it matures the lower trunk becomes bare and branches form, giving the distinct tree-like shape. An excellent plant for garden landscaping, being suitable for group planting or single specimen and also containers. Extremely hardy – plant in average soil, moist or dry tolerant, full sun to part shade and both wind and frost tolerant.
