Pony Tail Palm – Offshoots
Q: I have a ponytail palm that is about 35 years old. Recently, it developed rather large sprout on the side of the trunk, should I cut it off or just leave it alone?
A: My research suggests that sprouts on the trunk are juvenile limbs, but sprouts at the base are offsets, which can be removed and propagated.
