    Please can I clarify which plant you are asking about.
    Cordyline or Lobelia cardinalis?
    Also where you live ...approximately...as that will reflect the answers you get.
    Perthshire. SCOTLAND .

    I still don't know what you mean.  :/
    Fence it?

    Ah  :D
    In that case, no, shouldn't be necessary unless it's tiny and vulnerable, but it's wet cold that does for them here. Up against a house wall should be fine.
