Very cool, Cheryl! You have a bunch of 'em. Love that view!! Are they root hardy or evergreen hardy where you are?
That's stunning, Donald! Probably impossible to attach a cultivar name, there's so many, but looks like one of the red C. australis.

You could accurately add the species to your plant list:
Cabbage Tree (Cordyline australis)
I've always kept mine in the shade too, just a little early AM or late PM sun. Inside for winter.
