There is always a risk when it comes to planting, transplanting or replanting cordylines and of course no-one wants to unintentionally kill them if they can help it. In this video English horticulturists Simon and Lorna explain the importance of reducing water loss from the leaves while the roots are inevitably damaged during the lifting process. This cordyline is an established plant that has been lifted from an existing border and in this video we explain how to replant it in an other border using various techniques that will give it the best start in its new life.

Join us as we walk around arguably one of England’s least known, best exotic garden and check out the techniques, design queues and plant choices that the gardeners here have put in place for superb effect.
