snow damaged new zealand flax? fix?
pac nw
well they have survived at least 10 winters and i know it
has been in the 20's every now and then for periods of time
spent 2+ hours yesterday ropping and belting up the leaves
and cutting dead leaves off the bottom
left it bundled up
good idea or bad?
only did it to one of the plants
plan/theory is to gradually release the ropes over a couple
weeks hoping that this will restore the uprightness
good or bad idea?

Exactly where on the planet are you?
Are you trying to grow them where they normally don't survive the winter?
Most Phormium cultivars cannot tolerate freezing temperatures.
