I have what I believe to be a Ponytail Palm however it does not have a large base. The stem has several roots showing but nothing larger. It is 5-6 years old. Could I have missed identifing this plant? Pemberg
please post a pic of it - could be a ponytail palm or a pregnant onion. generally, the ponytail palms are very slow growing and the base doesn't get too large until they are quite old.
I have a ponytail palm growing in my living room. It is 8 yoa. I brought it back to Pa. from Az. It is not showing any roots stands about 7ft.tall. The ball at the bottom is about a foot in diameter. Long thing growing leaves.
If it doesn't have a thickened base it cannot be a "Ponytail" Beaucarnea. Your plant in the picture is definitely Draceana marginata. (the names Dracaena concinna and D. cincta are now considered synonymous.) If you had mention it had red along the leaf margin, ID would have been much quicker.
