* 국표식 명칭 '신서란'에 대해
'신서란'은 Phormium tenax를 중국에서는 新西兰麻라고 하는데 여기서 新西兰은 New Zealand를 가리킨다.
Phormium tenax를 영명으로는 New Zealand flax로 일컫고 중국에서는 이 영명을 新西兰麻라고 한 것인데 '신서란'이 무엇인지 모르는 사람들이 新西兰麻에서 麻를 떼어버리고 '신서란'이라 부른 것이다. 잘못된 국명이므로 쓰지 말아야 할 것이다. 영명을 번역하여 '뉴질랜드아마'로 불러야 할 것이다.

Phormium tenax (called flax in New Zealand English; harakeke in Māori; New Zealand flax[1] outside New Zealand; and New Zealand hemp[1] in historical nautical contexts) is an evergreen perennial plant native to New Zealand and Norfolk Island that is an important fibre plant and a popular ornamental plant.[2] The plant grows as a clump of long, straplike leaves, up to two metres long, from which arises a much taller flowering shoot, with dramatic yellow or red flowers.[2]
The fibre has been widely used since the arrival of Māori to New Zealand, originally in Māori traditional textiles and also in rope and sail making[3] after the arrival of Europeans until at least WWII. It is an invasive species in some of the Pacific Islands and in Australia.[4]
The blades of the plant contain cucurbitacins, which are poisonous to some animals, and some of them are among the bitterest tastes to humans.[5]

Noteworthy Characteristics
Phormium tenax, commonly called New Zealand flax, is native to New Zealand. It is an evergreen, clump-forming tender perennial that grown for its attractive foliage. It features rigid, sword-shaped, linear, bright green leaves (3-9’ long) in erect clumps. Leaf margins and midribs are narrowly edged with red-orange. Bronze and purple leaved varieties are available in commerce with a number of cultivars featuring variegated leaves striped or edged with pink, red, orange or purple. Leaves are creased(주름지다. 접다) down the middle and folded into a v-shape. Panicles of dark red flowers appear well above the foliage atop stout, rigid flowering spikes (to 12’ tall) in summer. Plants in containers grow much smaller and rarely flower. The blooms are attractive to hummingbirds.
Genus name comes from the Greek word phormion meaning "mat" as the Maoris used it to weave garments and baskets.
Specific epithet means strong, tough or matted.
