transplanting a large Ponytail Palm How To Transplant A Large Ponytail Palm / Joy Us Garden

I love my 3-headed Ponytail Palm & boy oh boy has it grown! I’ve repotted it twice & the last time was 2 1/2 years ago. It lives outdoors year round on my covered patio here in Tucson & thrives in the heat.

I bought this Ponytail Palm in a 6″ pot at the Santa Barbara Farmers Market years ago. This is its 3rd transplanting. It was starting to put out a big surge of spring growth so I definitely wanted to get this done before May rolled around.

This same method of transplanting would also apply to a smaller Ponytail Palm. They can stay potbound for quite a while & like most plants, they’ll just stop growing. Even though it was as potbound as can be, this plant looked fine.

I could have easily divided this Ponytail Palm into 3 plants because there was a bit of separation between each bulbous base. Each had substantial root growth. To me, the 3 heads in 1 pot are much more appealing so I left them be. Ya gotta love Ponytails because they’re so very fascinating but a breeze to maintain!
