Roger spotted an amazing new flower spike 'exploding' out of the top of his friends Cordyline Palm tree - in spring in Wales (UK)
These flower spikes grow very quickly and can dominate the look of the Palm (although it is not officially a Palm tree - most folks in the UK call it a palm tree) by early early summer with a huge cloud of creamy white highly perfumed flowers.
The flowers can go on to set seed which can be harvested in the winter and sown to grow your own new palm trees - see our channel for several videos showing how to germinate the seeds and grow your own baby palm trees here is one of those videos from our channel [ Ссылка ]
These exotic looking plants are surprising hardy and are known by several names
Cordyline Australis
Torbay Palm
Cabbage Palm
Australian Palm
