    Hi. This is my first time at doing this so I hope I don't get it wrong. We live in South East Queensland Australia and we have two outstanding pony tails. They are in full flower and have so many flowers we are getting a little worried about the plants strength to cope with such a display. The under leaves are falling away and the new growth is starting to brown at the tips. The flowering display is to die for. It has been performing now for 7 weeks and looks like never ending. My question is when does it stop and what can we do to assist the plant to withstand such an enormous performance. Attached I hope we have added some photographs that will aid anyone in helping us to maintain our plants and return them to a healthy and glorious state. Please help!
