I have a 2 & 1'2' trunk Fortunei that I had outside all Spring and Summer pot planted. Due to Kansas winds, the leafs that were out in March & April got pretty beaten up and torn. I left them on thou.
I have brought the tree in. SHould I cut the leafs that are torn and browning on the tips but still good green stems off or should I leave them on?

I would keep them on until they are completely brown. I never cut my fronds off when they have some green left in them.
