Phormium tenax
I've got a Phormium tenax Atropurpurea, flowered for the first time this
year. Now, in November, I'm left with these 9ft tall tubers in the middle with the dead flowers on them. Do these need to be pruned, or will it flower every year on the same stalks ? TIA. Chris |

Flowering is, however, somewhat sporadic. -- Robert |
