Description |
|
The ponytail palm is a very unique
looking houseplant. It features a
large, wrinkled, swollen base, and
very thin, long, grass-like leaves
emerging from the top of the trunk.
This plant is very easy to care for
and thrives on neglect. The swollen
trunk stores water, which means that
this succulent does not need to be
watered often. |
