Indoor Bonsai — Beaucarnea recurvata — Ponytail Palm — 5+ Years
$250.00
One of the most dramatic and conversation-stopping bonsai you will ever own — this Beaucarnea recurvata (Ponytail Palm) has been growing for 5+ years and presents a swollen, sculptural caudex base from which a fountain of long, arching, hair-like leaves cascade dramatically in every direction. At 25 cm, this tree commands a room.
The Ponytail Palm is not a true palm but a succulent — storing water in its distinctive bulbous base, making it one of the most forgiving and low-maintenance bonsai subjects available. This specimen is planted in a handmade NZ ceramic pot by Jan — a dark glazed round form displayed on a traditional wooden stand. The complete composition is a living sculpture.
