    Hi, i was recently at my doctors office for a check up. I noticed he had a plant he called a pony tail plant. However, it didnt look like a Pony Tail Palm. On the main part of the plant, it had foot long leaves, shaped like Spider Plant leaves. But, the more impressive part were the meter long, 2 milimeter wide "pony tails". There were about 12 of them, all trailing down from the main plant. Does anyone know about this plant? I f you do, please write it here.

    sure sounds like a ponytail palm that has a ton of babies growing!

    can you go back and take a pic and post it? could possibly be something else...

    you can either start a new thread or just add on to this one - i'll subscribe to this just in case you opt to add instead of going with a new thread.
