make leggy cordylines bushy

West Orange, NJ(Zone 6a)

Have just repotted 2 cordylines I bought from Stokes Tropicals, Pink Integrity and Sunset. They a bit leggy and I'd like them more bushy. Can a more experienced grower tell me, if I cut the tops off, will they become more bushy?

Yes, where you cut them off, you will get more branches. You can easily root what you cut off as well. They root very fast ( 2 wks or so)

Thanks Tigerlily123. Dip in rooting hormone before potting?

You can, but they will root easily w/out it. Unless you are using the more expensive rooting hormones, I don't think it will matter.
