Why is my Cordyline going brown?

Cordyline plants can develop spots on their leaves, often in response to physical damage or stress such as exposure to cold wind, hail and winter wet. Wet and cold weather in winter, and drought and heat stress in summer, can lead to poor growth, yellowing and browning of the foliage or excess leaf drop.

How do I care for my indoor Cordyline?

Home care: Water freely when in growth, but keep drier in winter. Mist the leaves regularly with water to increase humidity and every so often put it under a cold shower to wash off the leaves. Make sure the winter temperatures stay above 15°C, and repot every couple of years.
