What should you feed or not feed a phormium?
Would it do well situated near an orange tree in coastal central california?
I have "Jester" that I want to put near (sort of under) the orange tree.
thanks

As long as it gets plenty of sun and isn't allowed to dry out completely too often, it needs nothing at all - I never feed Phormiums, they don't seem to need it.
