Help with Cordyline

[dummkopf]

Last year I re-potted a large purple cordyline into an alibaba type pot (plastic). Lately it's started to 'weep' from the trunk near the base (looks a bit like it's rotting) and also where the dead leaves have turned brown and dropped off . I'm not sure what to do, could it be water logged and shall I make more holes in the pot ? Any ideas please ?

you can never have too much drainage. cut all the old leaves off and do not water for a while. i had one that did the same last year. alas it died but don't give up hope

to add to this the one that died was in the shade most of the day. i have another in full sun which is perfectly healthy. don't know if this helps

Thanks a lot plantboy I'll make more holes in the tub. It's in the sun mostly.
cheers.
