I have a couple of different S. trifasciata cultivars that could stand a little shaping. If I were to twist a leaf a little to the angle I want, will it eventually grow in position? Some leaves of my very tall ancestral from S. trifasciata are beginning to lean and bend. The twisted ones stay more upright, so would pressuring straight leaves into angles cause them to eventually grow like that so they'd stay upright like the twisted ones?
I also have a bird nest type that doesn't really want to maintain the bird nest shape. Others of its type ('Black Gold' I think) get pretty messy. As leaves emerge, I'm wondering if a little pressure wouldn't encourage them to grow in a more attractive position/shape.
I'm not talking about huge differences with any - just a little change for a more aesthetically pleasing plant.
(It's possible that I have too much time on my hands.)
