Description
Beaucarnea recurvata, also known as the elephant's foot or ponytail palm, is an evergreen perennial growing over 4m with a noticeable expanded caudex for storing water. The single palm-like stem produces terminal tufts of strap-shaped, recurved leathery leaves, sometimes hair lock-shaped in the ends, and with occasional panicles of small white flowers once the plant reaches over 10 years of age. Easy to grow small palm features green fronds that add life and beauty to any room. Ponytail Palm adds instant tropical elegance to your home or office.
