Product Details

Beaucarnea recurvata, often called the Ponytail palm, is a resilient and highly decorative plant, easily recognized by its swollen trunk base that stores water and its long, arching leaves that cascade gracefully like a fountain. Although commonly nicknamed a palm, it’s not a true palm but a drought-tolerant succulent relative. Supplied in a decorative pot, it arrives as a sculptural design element that adds character and greenery to your home without the need for repotting. This species thrives in bright light, tolerates some direct sun, and requires only infrequent watering, making it ideal for plant lovers seeking a dramatic look with minimal effort.

Compare with: While tropical plants like Musa (banana tree) demand high humidity and frequent watering, the Ponytail palm is the opposite—thriving on neglect with its low water needs and drought tolerance, making it perfect for busy households.
