Default Re: Bent leaves

it seems that 2 different things are being discussed here.

re: leaves that don't unfurl properly - I have a 6' Ae Ae in a pot and had been conservative in watering it after reading warnings of the risk of over-watering. About 10-14 days ago I had 2 leaves that required "surgery" to get them unfurled. Then, a friend told me he had been told that Ae Ae love a lot of water and are hard to over-water. I decided to give it a try and have soaked it ever 1-2 days. I then got 2 perfect leaves about 4 days apart with another on the way. Maybe I've learned something, but too early to say for sure.
