Karls right it depends on a lot of factors such as soil type weather etc .Make sure they dont dry out but dont waterlog them either .

Hi Angela and welcome. The lower leaves of cordy`s do naturally go yellow then browns and then you can pull them off or leave as you wish to allow them to die back and fall off themselves. This is what forms the trunk.But also can be sign of stress.Generally they dont transplant well from the ground...
