Cordyline 'Ahc Ahc' - A clumping variety of Cordyline that grows to 3 to 4 feet tall with weeping, variegated foliage in a blend of colors that starts out apricot and peach and matures to a mix of yellow and green with all colors present at the same time. We have not seen this cultivar bloom yet, but it likely will have the tiny pale lilac flowers, with a jasmine-like fragrance, held above the foliage on branched stems that many other Cordyline hybrids have.

Plant in full sun to part shade in a well-drained soil with regular to occasional irrigation. We have not had it outside for a cold winter but likely this plant will tolerate temperatures down to 20° F. Cordyline 'Ahc Ahc' is our name for reversions selected out of crops of tissue cultured plants of the showy Cordyline 'Cha Cha' that has the same base color foliage, but with bright pink margins – for more information on this parent plant, see our listing at Cordyline 'Cha Cha'. This cultivar name is simply the parent plants name spelled backwards. 

Information displayed on this page about Cordyline 'Ahc Ahc' is based on our research conducted about this plant in our nursery library as well as from information provided by reliable online resources. We also include our own observations made about it as it has grown in the nursery gardens and other gardens visited, as well how the crops of this plant performed in the containers in our nursery field. We will also include comments received from others and welcome hearing from anyone who has information about this plant, particularly if it includes cultural information aiding others to better grow it.

 
San Marcos Growers closed for regular business at the end of 2025 as the property is being developed for affordable housing.
While our gates remain closed, we will open them by appointment so we can liquidate remaining plants, supplies and equipment. The plants remaining in the field are listed on our Live Inventory Page.
