Fun fact: Elephants walk on the soles of their feet and have toenails rather than hooves. That is why they are considered to have "feet". The sole of the foot is covered in a thick epidermal layer tissue that acts like shock absorbers. This allows the elephant to move surprisingly silently... so watch your back.

Hello! Love your channel, I m in nyc area, been looking for branched ponytail palm, ideally 3 branches with different heights, know anyone or good nursery selling them? From 4 to 9 feet would be ideal, if the composition I like I don’t mind to get few smaller ones. I have some reference pix. Hope I can find a nice ponytail I love and can keep for a long time! Thank you

Prior to the trunk chop, the trunk was not as visible. I am loving the new look. We will see how this goes. It was in the old pot for 7 or 8 years before this. Hopefully this was not too much of a shock for him!

I did thin out a couple of the new shoots and tried to grow that as a cutting in water. It stayed alive for over a year in the water but never rooted. I finally gave up on it. I bet woody cuttings from this species would root more easily.

I don't have an ID for it. I picked it up at an IKEA years ago. It might be because the leaves are still growing back from the trunk chop. They are quite a bit longer now.
