American Plant Exchange Live Ponytail Palm Tree, Bottle Palm Tree, Elephant’s Foot Houseplant, Ideal for Home and Garden Decor, 6" Pot

Ponytail palms are one of my very favorite plants. But I really prefer larger plants which I did not expect to find online. This ponytail palm was much nicer & larger than I anticipated! A very healthy beauty. The plant is very full as shown in photograph, with a beautiful base. Shipping was in a safe & long package but the pot was still cracked during shipping. Easy to repot & the roots were undamaged. Very dry on arrival which is probably best. A great plant find & beatiful addition to my indoor garden. Very cheerful sitting in a window during these stay at home days. Will buy more!!

Blown away! I ordered this plant as a gift because I was pretty impressed with one I had ordered for myself. This one is AMAZING! It was so big and full and healthy looking. It dwarfs the other one I received. It is better than any I have aeen for sale in person. As soon as I cut away the plastic wrapping it just took my breath away. Great price, don't hesitate to buy. With any luck you will get one as gorgeous as this bad boy!

I love this! It is sooo cute!! Came packaged well and actually delivered upright (thank you, UPS!). It looks really healthy.I’m on my phone and it is uploading my photos sideways for some reason (sorry—don’t know how to fix it on mobile app).2024 edit: it’s still alive almost 4 years later! I have to cut our brown leaves every now and then but it’s still putting out new fresh green growth. I have it in a lower light area than is probably best and it’s done pretty well.

GET READY FOR A MAC DADDY! This plant arrived in PERFECT condition; it was so carefully packaged. It EXCEEDS all expectation. I’m sure it must be a couple of years old at least; these plants grow very slowly and this one has a nice, brown trunk. It is easily 15” tall and has a similarly wide foliage spread. Don’t let the 6” pot fool you; this is a large plant. Of course, they can grow 30’ tall and, in their native Mexico, can be 350 years old! Indoor plants can get to 10 feet and flower as early as 10 years - don’t hold your breath - they don’t reach maturity for 50 years!! My plant arrived pot bound, which is fine for this species, and you’ll only need a pot 8” or so to accommodate it. It’s not a palm but a succulent - like a Joshua tree. Give it sandy succulent soil (I always add sand and pumice) and full sun. It takes more water than most succulents, weekly is good with good drainage. The plant I received is a perfect specimen and my current favorite plant! Enjoy!

I love all palms and the ponytail palms are so easy to care for. Adorable.

Ive liked these for several years and recently changed jobs, where one was placed on our central desk, I decided it was a sign... so I bought one.It seems they do vary from one to the next (ah, nature, ha!) Mine is probably about 2ft tall above the dirt. It has a single trunk, until it forms a Y where the foliage is.The ones Ive seen before are infact single trunk all the way to the green growth zone and foliage... the two growth zones look odd to me. Sadly I can tell a third sizeable branch was cut off, it left a gap. A 3rd branch (odd numbers) might have been more visually pleasing, but even further from a single trunk plant.I am always surprised when plants survive shipping, but it did well. (Delivered on a mild day in 83F weather, approx 1200ft/366m altitude.) Plant was in a approx 2.5ft tall 6i x6in box. Inside, the pot was shrink wrapped so very little dirt escaped, the trunk was very loosely wrapped in the remaining plastic wrap... all seemed sufficient/no issues. Very few leaves (are these frawns?, it is a palm) were broken, again, a shipping marvel.I like these plants. It arrived in good condition. Its forked to is not what I was expecting. Lets see what it does in the coming werks, months, years.

I got a very healthy and well packaged plant. You might say it was a little TOO healthy, there was SIX! bulbs fighting for space at the top of it and the fronds were quite dense/easily tangled. I decided to prune it down to 3 bulbs to reduce density and give each bulb space to mature (also I dig the aesthetics a bit more).This plant is also secretly the best cat plant too I guess, my 4 y/o cat has been going BONKERS over it since I put it down. The fronds are twisty and springy like a cat toy. She also enjoys munching on them (this plant is non-toxic & safe for cats and dogs). I had to velcro the pot to the dresser so she can't knock it over. Suggest putting this in a heavy ceramic pot if you have a feline :) Overall great value.

So...while reading the reviews before buying this, it appeared that many of the problems came from the packaging while being shipped, resulting in damaged plants. Not saying it is the seller”s fault, it appeared the handlers didn’t do their job. I called Amazon and told them this and requested it be packaged with “live plant” “fragile” and “this side up”. They totally complied and I received this beauty!! The plant is fantastic, but I thought it was worth noting the extra call I made to ensure this lovely little guy got to me in good shape. Will absolutely be ordering more from this company 🙌🙌🙌UPDATE: the last 4 pics were taken less than twelve hours after it got it. Looks really bad now. Soooo disappointed. The only thing I did was take it out of the box or came in. Maybe not ordering from them again after all.SECOND UPDATE: called and got a replacement as the first one is dying rapidly. The second one arrived looking good but was dying FIVE hours after I got it. See last 4 pics. Never buying from them again!
