Beaucarnea ‘recurvata’; Elephant’s foot or ponytail palm

Beaucarnea recurvata
Ponytail Palm / Elephant’s Foot

A striking architectural plant with a swollen; water-storing trunk and a fountain of long; narrow leaves that gracefully cascade down like a ponytail. Despite its common name; it is not a true palm; but a hardy; slow-growing succulent prized for its unique form and exceptional drought tolerance.

Easy to care for and wonderfully long-lived; it thrives in bright light with free-draining soil and minimal watering; making it ideal for containers; patios; or as an eye-catching indoor feature plant. A tough; low-maintenance choice that adds instant character to any space.
