Cordyline fruticosa, commonly called Hawaiian Ti Plant, Good Luck Plant, or Green Ti Plant, is a versatile tropical shrub known for its bold, sword-shaped leaves. In the Agavaceae family, it can reach 10 feet tall in ideal conditions but is often kept smaller as a houseplant or container specimen.
The foliage ranges from deep green to vibrant reds, pinks, and purples depending on cultivar. It thrives in bright, indirect light and high humidity, with well-drained soil. Ti plants are culturally significant in Polynesia and are often used in landscaping for their architectural form. Numerous synonyms exist, including Cordyline terminalis and Dracaena terminalis.
