Ponytail Palm (Beaucarnea recurvata)

Common Names: Ponytail Palm, Elephant's Foot Tree, Bottle Palm, Monja.

Best Growing Environment: Ponytail Palms are not true palms but are a type of succulent. They're native to eastern Mexico's semi-desert regions and thrive in dry, well-draining soils. Their bulbous base, often likened to an elephant's foot, stores water, enabling the plant to endure drought conditions.

Average Height: In indoor settings, Ponytail Palms typically range from 6 to 8 feet tall. However, in their natural outdoor habitat, they can reach heights of up to 20-30 feet.

Growth Rate: These plants are relatively slow-growing, especially when kept indoors or in containers.

Sun Requirements: Ponytail Palms adore sunlight. Indoors, they should be placed near a window that receives bright, indirect light. Outdoors, they can handle full sun but will also tolerate partial shade.

Cold Hardiness: While the Ponytail Palm is hardy, it doesn't fare well in freezing temperatures. It is best suited for USDA zones 9-11. In colder zones, it's preferable to grow them in containers that can be moved indoors during the winter.

Water Requirements: Due to their succulent nature, Ponytail Palms are drought-tolerant. Overwatering is a common mistake. It's best to let the soil dry out between waterings. When you do water, ensure it's a deep watering and that the pot has adequate drainage to prevent root rot.

Fertilizing Guide: While Ponytail Palms aren't particularly demanding about fertilization, a light application of a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer during the growing season (spring and summer) can support their growth. Fertilize once or twice during this period and avoid fertilizing in the fall and winter.

Planting Guide: When planting a Ponytail Palm, select a well-draining potting mix, ideally cactus or succulent soil. Ensure the pot has good drainage. Plant the palm so that the bulbous base is above the soil. When the soil is entirely dry to the touch, water thoroughly. If planting outdoors, choose a spot with well-draining soil and ensure the base remains above ground level.

USDA Zone: The Ponytail Palm thrives in USDA zones 9-11.

Distinctive with its swollen base and long, hair-like leaves that cascade downwards, the Ponytail Palm is a unique addition to any indoor or outdoor space. Contrary to its name, it's not a true palm but rather a member of the Agave family. This easy-to-care-for plant is an excellent choice for those new to gardening or those who prefer low-maintenance plants.

Officially my favorite and exclusive deodorant.
Style: Vintage Suede, Size: 2.65 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is the most amazing smelling deodorant I've ever used, and unique, too. Very smooth just like their shaving cream, and I haven't had any irritation. I've been complimented by a few people now on how good I smell.

Smells great. Doesn't mess with my pits.
Style: Casked Vanilla, Size: 2.65 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I ordered the casked vanilla scent. My lady loves it on me. The added benefit I wasn't expecting was no more sour pit smell by the end of the day that has plagued me using other brands. I'll keep ordering this stuff for now.

Effective
Style: Italian Bergamot, Size: 2.65 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Smells is nice but not amazing, the body wash in the Bergamot smells much better. But this stuff lasts. No chalky / sticky feeling but still keeps me BO free for two days straight.

Can't stop laughing
Format: Hardcover
These are amazing tales from Turkey. Beautiful narration of several very old tales. They bring the Hoja back to life. My kids and I thoroughly enjoy the stories and can't stop laughing as we read the tales again and again. The illustrations are superb.

Muslim Folktales of a Wise but Silly Teacher
Format: Hardcover
Reason for Reading: I love legends, folklore and the like. This was an area completely unknown to me so I was intrigued to read these tales. These stories come from Turkey and are Muslim tales of a wise man, a trickster and a fool all wrapped up in the same person. Hoji is a Muslim teacher, some respect him others don't. Historically, Nasrudin Hoja (who goes by a host of different spellings) is considered an actual man who may have lived in the 1200s, his funny tales with messages have been handed down and built upon all over the middle east and across Asia, even reaching as far as China. But this book sticks with the tales told in Turkey, centered on the then village of Aksehir. There are ten folktales presented here, each is short (only a few pages long) and Hoji while being a wise man is really very silly indeed. Children should find these stories humorous and laugh at the solutions Hoji comes up with to his, or others, troubles. He is always fair and stuck-up people will get pulled back down to reality. Hoji is a winner for the common folk and isn't afraid to take on a man of much greater status than himself. Hoji is also a trickster and likes to cause a little trouble by bringing someone back down to earth and showing him he is not above other people just because he has money or position. Then there is Hoji the fool, who will listens to what people tell him and in the end it is he who has been made a fool of, but still a lesson is being taught. Most of the stories have a lesson attached to them though they are not always blatantly obvious and do require you to think what the message of the story is. A couple, I think were just silly stories, as I could not find a message hidden in them at all. The book is told in simple language and as I said the stories are short so I'm recommending this for lower elementary children or as a read-aloud to younger children of any age. The illustrations are beautiful. Capturing the art of Turkish design in bold, bright cartoon-ish style pictures which seem to be done in a mixed-media format and, if I'm not mistaken, that includes a tad of collage as well. This is a fun introduction to a new cultural folktale that kids are sure to have fun with.
