The Pony Tail Palm is not actually a palm; this native of southeastern Mexico is actually a member of the lily family and, also goes by the names Bottle Palm and Elephant Foot Palm because of its bulbous base. Ponytails make great indoor Bonsai Trees and, are ideal for beginners who desire a slow growing, low maintenance plant for home, office or anywhere. Considered extremely hardy, they do well in either bright, indirect, or full sun; making it a bonsai to sit back and enjoy. A ponytail palm bonsai is a great addition to any home decor or office decor, and can be a great and thoughtful gift for any occasion. Simply providing light and a little water will ensure that this plant will flourish for years. Each live plant is shipped with the Phytosanitary Certificate as required by the USDA.
