Beaucarnea recurvata 'Ponytail Palm' plant in 12 cm pot

Beaucarnea recurvata 'Ponytail Palm'

Despite its name, the Ponytail Palm isn’t a true palm—it’s a drought-tolerant succulent with a bulbous base that stores water and long, strappy leaves that arch like a fountain. Easygoing and architectural, it adds sculptural flair to any room and thrives on neglect, making it perfect for beginners and busy plant lovers.

Its slow-growing nature and dramatic form make it equally suited to tabletops or large pots as it matures.

PLANT CARE

• Light: Bright, indirect light to full sun
• Water: Allow the top few centimeters of soil to dry between waterings; avoid overwatering
• Humidity: Prefers dry indoor air; tolerant of low humidity
• Considerations: Sensitive to overwatering and cold; keep warm and avoid wet feet. Use a well-draining, chunky aroid mix, such as our specifically designed blend for aroids and houseplants.
