Off shoots on my Cordyline

My cordyline has grown upwards into a tree with the shoots mostly intact as ‘branches’ but I have a yukka in the same situation as you it has grown a big old teenager or two and they are now overtaking my pathway so I too was wondering if I should just cut them off
I ll look forward to answers also when s the right time of year to do it And can you grow them on ?

We have what we think is a large yucca in our garden. DH cut off the side shoots and they re-grew well, but he can’t remember what time of year, sorry!

Normally Cordyline are pruned in spring. Very easy to do with a saw. Make sure you angle the cuts so that rain runs off.
You will probably get babies growing below the cut.
I believe yucca are similar.

Both are easy to propagate from cuttings. Try a mixture of potting compost and perlite, make sure you strip off leaves so that only bare stem is underground. I always cover cuttings with a clear plastic bag to stop them drying out.
If you have hormone rooting powder you can dip the cut end into it before planting.
Best done in the spring.

Thank you Esspee I'll wait until next year.
