Ponytail Palm Plant
Wild, sculptural, and honestly kind of awesome — the Ponytail Palm is a conversation starter.
Its thick, rounded trunk (nicknamed “Elephant’s Foot”) stores water like a camel, while long
ribbon-like leaves spill over the top in a playful fountain. This is the ultimate
“I want a plant but I don’t want to babysit it” plant.
Excellent for desks, side tables, entryways, or anywhere that needs something
living without being needy. Thrives in bright light but tolerates low light, and it can
easily go 10–14 days without watering thanks to its built-in water reservoir.
Approximately: 17" H x 17" W
