Description

Nolina recurvata, commonly called Elephant’s Foot or Ponytail Palm, features a distinctive swollen woody base that stores water, lending it exceptional drought resistance and its characteristic “elephant foot” look. Its long, slender, arching leaves form a fountain-like crown of green foliage, adding a sculptural element to indoor and outdoor spaces. This plant gradually grows taller, resembling a miniature Willow tree. Although mature specimens can produce small white flower clusters, flowering is rare in indoor environments.

Landscape Use

Suitable for Container, Rock Garden & Xeriscaping

 

Most succulents need to be watered twice a week during summers and only once in monsoon & winters. Varieties like Haworthias, Crassulas and Gasterias are well suited for low-light indoors and window-sills. If the leaves get too bulky, it is a sign of overwatering & if the leaves look shrivelled it is a sign of less watering.

As a general rule of thumb, all the ones with colourful leaves like Echeverias, Sedeveria and Graptopetalum like bright sunlight and semi shade in extreme summers. They cannot be kept indoors or in full shade. All succulents love morning sun.

You can fertilise your succulent once a month.

Watering tips : Make sure NOT to water on the plant itself. Water directly in the soil. You can use a cup or a glass to make sure the water does not spray on leaves. When watering, make sure water comes out of the drainage hole.
