Wow! Such a beautiful, elegant plant! We absolutely love the full shape and wonderful foliage on this houseplant!
Nolina Recurvata is also known as ‘elephant’s foot’ or the ‘ponytail palm’, it is a strong houseplant requiring very little care. It is not a true palm, the term ‘elephant’s foot’ comes from the large caudex at its base that stores water, which makes it look like the foot of an elephant.
It’s a classic 70s houseplant making a huge comeback - for good reason, its stunning easy-care nature makes it hard not to love!
Making a great houseplant gift for a really special person, these very attractive plants make super stylish presents!
For houseplant gifts, we add an extra special touch. If you include a message at the basket stage of the checkout, we’ll enclose a free, handwritten card along with the houseplant. We’ll leave out the paperwork too so no price will be spotted!
Happy Houseplants is the place to buy houseplants - whether it’s large indoor plants (UK), mini houseplants or succulents for sale. We have the plants and the knowledge and we really enjoy sharing our passion for houseplants with you, our customers.
