The Palm Ponytail (Beaucarnea recurvata), also known as the Elephant Foot Tree, is a distinctive and low-maintenance houseplant that brings a touch of desert elegance to your home. With its unique swollen trunk that stores water and its cascading, arching leaves that resemble a ponytail, this plant is both eye-catching and easy to care for. Ideal for plant enthusiasts of all levels, the Palm Ponytail adds a sculptural element to your indoor spaces, making it a perfect statement piece for any room.

Size Options:

• 4-Inch Pot: A compact version that’s perfect for small spaces, desktops, or as a starter plant for your indoor garden.
• 6-Inch Pot: A medium-sized plant that offers a fuller display, suitable for tabletops, windowsills, or as a centerpiece in your decor.
• 8-Inch Pot: A more mature plant that makes a bold statement in larger spaces, ideal for living rooms, entryways, or office environments.

Key Features:

• Sculptural Trunk: The thick, swollen trunk not only adds to the plant’s unique appearance but also helps it retain water, making it drought-tolerant and low-maintenance.
• Elegant Foliage: The long, narrow leaves gracefully arch out from the top, resembling a ponytail, adding a playful yet sophisticated touch to your space.
• Easy Care: Known for its ability to thrive in various indoor conditions, the Palm Ponytail is an excellent choice for busy plant owners or those new to indoor gardening.

Care Tips:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. Can also adapt to direct sunlight, which enhances its growth.
• Water: Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. The thick trunk stores water, making it highly drought-tolerant.

• Temperature: Best suited for temperatures between 60°F and 80°F. Protect from cold drafts and avoid placing near heating vents.
