Any help identifying this plant greatly appreciated

Hi all can anyone please help me identify this plant . It's sort of like a palm but the winter frosts have killed it off . Have attached several pics . Many thanx in anticipation.

 

Im not seeing any pics at the moment ?

 

Nope no photos... I am sure someone can help once the pics are up. It's a terribly knowledgeable lot here :thumb:

Hello Paul and welcome to GC.

A sad long-haired hippie? That's the first two .. the next three? I don't know, something from outer space perhaps?

Don't know, hope someone else can help and enjoy the forum.

 

very winter damaged cordylines.....you could try cutting off all the leaves and leaving a bare trunk keep it watered and it may make new buds on the stem, having said that the trunk dosent look so clever on that one, although could be the picture.

 

They look like gonners to me.

they are relatively cheap, so I think I would give up on those and buy some new ones this year.

 

Thanks to you all , just had a look online , there are so many varieties , will need to take advice on which is best suited , although theses ones were growing at some rate

 

The ordinary green ones are the hardiest, Cordyline australis.

The named cultivars tend to be less hardy and smaller growing in general.

 

Over here the common or garden C.australis has been hammered.:thmb:

 

Yeah but when they get bigger they get hardier.:wink:
