newzealand flax


newzealand flax

this plant was much bigger and took over someones intire small front garden.he butcherd it out the ground in that realy hot summer 2-3 years ago.he hacked all the leaves and roots right back so he didnt have so much of a lump to get rid of.it sat out side his house for a good few weeks before i could catch him in.finaly i found him and asked for some.me and my friend hacked sawed and chopped a piece of.its a well hard plant as you can see.ps try pulling a leaf apart.i think you could probably tow a car with a big leaf but i dont recomend it.
