- Light: Cordyline fruticosa Mambo does best in moderate to bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight as this may damage the leaves. Fruticosa Mambo is one of the more shade tolerant Cordylines.
- Watering: Drought-tolerant but thrives if its soil is kept consistently moist. Allow the top of the soil to dry out slightly before watering and do not allow to stand in water. Reduce watering in winter. If possible use rain or filtered water to avoid brown leaf tips.
- Humidity: Additional humidity is preferable. Increase humidity levels by standing on a wet pebble tray and misting regularly. The Hawaiian Ti is ideal for steamier rooms like the kitchen or bathroom.
- Additional care advice: Hawaiian Ti Plants enjoy average to warm household temperatures from 18-27°C. Ensure your plant is always above 13°C and avoid draughts as these can create undesirable temperature fluctuations. Apply a weak solution of liquid fertiliser once or twice a month during the growing season. Do not use fertilisers containing fluoride. The Hawaiian Ti Plant is a moderate-grower, reaching heights of around 1 metre to 1.5 metres ind

Description
Cordyline fruticosa Mambo is a wonderfully colourful tropical foliage plant, with lovely glossy maroon tinged leaves that branch off a central stem. They form in a manner similar to Dracaena (they are both members of the same family), with their lower leaves dying to encourage new growth as the plant develops. Cordyline fruticosa is also sometimes known as Cordyline terminalis, or even Dracaena terminalis.
