You \*could\* keep your Ponytail Palm away from sun rays - mine was, and it seemed content - or let it get tickled (no better way to put it) by some light. Mine has seemed more vibrant over the last week.

These plants are underrated gems. They’re good for your ego in a “I can raise an exotic plant, what’s next?” way.

I just now read that this species is from the asparagus family (so is Snake Plant). Mind expanded. 🌱

Mine has been in full sun on my patio for over a decade including the 100°F heat wave all summer! I just watered every day. It’s too heavy to lift. I can only drag it inside when the weather is below freezing. It’s an easy care plant!

That’s good to hear. From my limited experience, I haven’t seen them placed sunny. My plant is benefiting from my impatience over hanging blackout curtains without a tape measure 😀

This is mine next to an old hot tub. Mine started as 2 plants in a small pot for about 3 years until one plant died. I repotted the remaining one and it filled the pot with a mesh of roots in a season. I repotted again to the current pot and it filled the pot with roots. Ants love the roots mesh when it’s too dry. I just flood them to get rid of them.
