I have a ponytail plant in a pot (live in the mid west)..many years ago we had a sudden freeze and the top of it was "nipped!" I crossed my fingers, brought it inside and cut the top off...put on rooting hormone...some weeks later it began growing 3 shoots off from sides! they are now "all" happy and I have a large full green "umbrella" at the top! Beautiful!
Also..I didn"t know they bloomed!...what do they look like??
I was very surprised when it finally flowered. It happened after a huge oak fell on the shed, destroyed it and knocked the top of the ponytail off. This is the only pic I have. Next time I will take more pics.
Is there some secret to having them bloom? I googled it and the "plum?" is SO beautiful!! Mine probably never will, as it's in a pot!!
Hi Sherrie! I guess mine is around 25+ yrs. Again, it's in a large pot! How old do you think it has to be to bloom? ...I looked at my last comment to you..I should have said PLUME!!!..sorry also, I checked the tops of my 2 palms...no sign of sprouts! I keep them inside during the winter-put outside in spring, summer & fall. Guess I'm on a MISSION now!!!!!!
Thanks Sherrie!...It kinda looks like the flower of a Yucca!!! We have many of those!
My Yucca stabs anything near it so we moved several Yucca and let them grow where they won't hurt someone. I've never seen a flower but would love it. Where do you live Ironhorse?
