Palm 'Ponytail' 8"

The Arecaceae family, or palms, includes everything from towering trees and shrubs to climbing vines like rattans. Over 180 genera and about 2,600 species make up this diverse family. They’re famous for their big dramatic fronds that fan out from the top of a single stem. Mostly found in tropical and subtropical regions, palms aren’t just beautiful—they’re also super useful! They grow popular fruits like coconuts and dates.

‘Ponytail’ palms feature a thick, swollen base that stores water. Their slender trunks are topped with long, narrow, grass-like leaves that cascade downwards, resembling a ponytail.
