Palm or Yucca? IDd by Alberto (ezeiza) as Cordyline australis
« on: September 11, 2011, 12:43:55 PM »
I saw this in flower In Loutraki in the spring.
At first I thought it was a Yucca but then thought it might be a kind of Palm
It was about 3 meters tall
Any ideas?

Living in Korinthos, Greece.
No garden but two balconies, one facing south and the other north.
Most of my plants are succulents which need little care

Thanks for the identification.
It was interesting to read about its uses in New Zealand
