Some 9 years ago my late wife Joan, bought a plant named ‘Pony Tail’ (Beaucarnea recuriata). It has been living and growing in a large pot at the rear of our house, and after all that time, has just developed a large flower head. It doesn’t look too good, but I will wait to see if the flowers are attractive and if so, harvest any seeds which develop.
Joan would have been excited to see this change.

I had no idea what this plant was called, so I went to my local Bunnings store where a horticulturalist found one for sale in the garden section and I wrote down its name so that I would appear smart.

Kev, I have had 2 pony tails in my garden for about 20 years and although they are healthy, they haven't ever flowered, One is in a pot and the other in the ground, so you are lucky that yours flowered.Marg
