- Beaucarnea Recurvata in 13cm Zinc Pot (Ponytail Palm) Beaucarnea recurvata, which is also known as the Elephant's Foot, is an evergreen succulent plant with a dense topknot of sword-shaped leaves which cascade down around the thick, trunk-like stem, giving rise to Beaucarnea's other, perhaps more elegant name, of the Ponytail Palm. A native of Mexico, the Ponytail Palm is an exceptionally robust houseplant & makes a great ornamental feature in your home. Often treated as a bonsai, they are ideal for beginners who want a slow growing, low maintenance plant.

- the perfect solution. With the potential to reach 1.5m in 20 years, your plant is delivered approx. 30cm tall in a 13cm zinc pot
- this easy-care houseplant is perfect for instant impact & social media sharing. Top Tips These plants dislike overwatering, so let the compost get quite dry before repeating the process again. Care Guide Keep your Ponytail Palm growing well with a weekly watering making sure the excess water drains away freely. Add a general purpose, soluble plant food to the water every two weeks. Repot only when necessary, using a pot only a few centimetres wider than the bulbous base. Any brown tips on the leaves can be snipped off with a sharp pair of scissors.
