Beaucarnea recurvata, commonly called the Ponytail Palm, is a slow-growing succulent species native to the semi-desert regions of eastern Mexico. Despite its common name, it is not a true palm but a member of the Asparagaceae family. In its natural habitat, it grows in rocky, well-drained soils and endures long dry periods, storing water in its swollen basal trunk.

The plant develops a distinctive bulbous base, known as a caudex, which tapers into a slender trunk topped with a rosette of long, narrow, arching leaves. This structure allows it to conserve water efficiently and withstand drought. Mature plants can branch and may reach several metres in height in the wild, though they remain much smaller in cultivation.

Flowering is rare in indoor specimens but can occur in mature plants grown outdoors in suitable climates. The inflorescences are tall, branched panicles bearing small, cream-coloured flowers that attract pollinators. Its combination of drought tolerance and distinctive form makes it a popular ornamental for both indoor and outdoor settings in warm climates.

Care Tips:

  • Light: Prefers bright light, including some direct sun; tolerates full sun outdoors.
  • Water: Water sparingly; allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings.
  • Media: Use a free-draining, sandy or gritty potting mix.
  • Fertiliser: Feed with a diluted balanced fertiliser during the growing season.
  • Temperature: Keep above 10 °C; tolerates higher temperatures if well-watered.
  • Repotting: Repot infrequently, only when rootbound, as it prefers a snug container.

amazing product, a little too pricey
it worked amazing while we were trying to swim in the ocean and snorkel in the ocean. The only downfall I have of this is the price is so much for such a little amount.

My go to brand
My go to brand. Other brands I have to reapply constantly and still have sunburn. I love this brand and the stick is even better for applying sunscreen. Very reliable without any mess!

Not fur Surfing or other Water Sports
I got this in a swag bag from a surfing contest. The stick is very dry...that's the only way I can explain how it feels. It certainly doesn't glide on like other face sticks. After one wave and ducking my face in the water, the product smeared off and ran into my eyes. My vision got blurry from that, and it was really hard to see the waves coming in. I won't be using this product ever again. I also looked at the EWG website, and this product was given a 6. For those new to EWG, that's not a good rating. You want like a 1 or 2.
