Ponytail Palm - Medium (beaucamea recurvata)

The most striking feature of the Ponytail Palm is the swollen base of the trunk. The texture of the trunk looks and feels scaly, like the foot of an elephant and is also known as Elephants Foot. The extraordinary thickening of the trunk serves as a water reservoir against dry spells, allowing the tree to go up to 10-14 days without water causing no ill effects. Excellent in lower or higher lighting conditions. The Ponytail Palm is an excellent choice for home, office or anywhere. Very easy indoor maintenance.
