iāve only had my ponytail palm for about a week, but based off what iāve read, these guys are HARDY. they can go for long periods without water with no problem, making them great for people who may tend to forget to water their plants. the one thing that annoys me about ponytail palms is how their tips brown so easily. i donāt really know what to do about it.

youāll be able to tell if you need to water less/more based on the color of the leaves ends. if they become like crispy and brown after a period of forgetting to water, water more. same thing but after watering? just chill until the soil is dry. the browning helps a lot and it always bounces back, the one time i forgot to water consistently and didnāt wanna wait, i just trimmed a tiny bit above the browning and it was perfectly fine, i love my lil tree 5/5:)

This plant is a little fickle when you first buy it! Itās easy to tell when the plant needs more/less watering. I would suggest checking the leaves every day for browning. This plant is definitely for beginners, as it was the first plant I bought ( about 5 months ago) and I havenāt killed it yet!
