The listing, LARGE PONY TAIL PALM~x1 IN POT~GOTTA SEE!!!! has ended.

WOW--WOW--WOW--Great Pony Tail Palm!! I found this one behind some other plants in my greenhouse---OOPS--should have been repotted LONG ago--but I missed getting it repotted (obviously). The bulb is about the size of my palm (see photo # 3). It measures approximately 2 1/2 inches in size (see photo # 4).
What you see is what you get. It is still in the original pot, which it has WAY outgrown!!! It will be sent in that pot because it is totally rootbound, with very little dirt left. As you can see in all the photos---the roots are actually poking up and out of the pot!!! The plastic pot will have to be carefully clipped off the roots!!! Plant the bulb half way up--DO NOT COVER THE WHOLE BULB---that will cause the bulb to rot!!! Leaves will grow back very quickly.
Photo # 1 shows this plant before I clipped the very long leaves, for shipping. Photo # 5 shows the plant with the leaves clipped, and shows EXACTLY what you are getting---same plant--in the pot as shown. If you have any questions---please feel free to ask BEFORE BIDDING. These plants are GREAT and get large--beautiful houseplant!!!!!!!!!!!!

GOOD LUCK and HAPPY GARDENING!!

WOW, I`d say that is in need of a re-potting there...
Really some root system on it though.. lol
Nice auction Sandy as always.. :o)

Looks about like one I had that I re-potted in a bigger pot just like you said to pot it and I was looking for it to really grow really big but never happened for some reason?

Yea---ThaT one got shoved to the back and missed--RATS. And yes---it has a massive root system. As far as the one you repotted---did you plant it about half way up, and not BURY the whole BULB?? Did you use fresh potting soil (knowing you--that would be a YES) Did it get plenty of light?? Did you keep it DRY---they like to be dry--cause the bulb holds and retains water. The only other thing that I can think of that might have gone wrong---did you gently loosen the roots before you planted it?? Could have been any (or many) of those things!! Thanks for looking my friend!!! :o)

The best gauge to water is when the caudex shrivels up.
