Also called an Elephant's Foot due to its fleshy trunk that remarkably resembles an elephant's foot. The Beaucarnea prefers bright rooms without direct sunlight and being somewhat root-bound in its pot. It is also very sensitive to overwatering, so it's important to let the soil dry out and avoid leaving stagnant water in the saucer.
