Does anybody Guess how many plants I have

### Eb commented on 2024-07-27

I have more then 34 plants

The answer is 34. What’s the prize? 😎

If you have a cat, or cats, then you’ll want to keep that Ponytail Palm in a locked room.

Cats love munching on Ponytail Palm. It doesn’t hurt them, the cats. The palm on the other hand will get a daily grooming by teeth.

Luckily I don’t have any cats yet
