Beaucarnea recurvata, commonly called Elephant’s Foot or Pony Tail Palms, defy their name - they're not palms but succulents from the Agave family. Sporting a distinctive appearance with a swollen base resembling an elephant’s foot and long, curving leaves like ponytails, they're instant eye-catchers. While slow-growing, ample light and water can spur their growth. Native to Mexico, they can soar over 4m in height, yet even the smallest specimens make captivating table or desk plants. Easy to care for, they're the perfect addition to any space, be it home or office.
