Looks like "Pony Tail Palm," frequently sold in discount stores as bonsai, we
refer to them as Malsai. Try watering it, it might come back, you have
nothing to lose. Water it well until the soil is evenly wet and then let it dry out
before watering again. If the base is soft it will not make it.

Yes, you're right, Billy, on its ID. Did you notice the plug at the top?
It looks as tho the previous owner was trying to save the tree before he
abandoned it ( as well as his apartment).

#4: Re: [IBC] Look what I found! --> caudiciforms as bonsai?

Posted on 2005-07-20 16:35:21 by djambient

It's a hardy plant and quite attractive when in good health. While probably
not a traditional bonsai I have seen very nice looking ones planted as
bonsai. I had a very small rounded one about the size of a golf ball - after
about 15 years I've transpanted it twice to larger pots and it is now about
the size of a cantaloupe melon. I don't think I could have kept the growth
any more in check. It's probably one of the more popular and common 'fat
plants' that you often see done as bonsai.

It seems that fat plants (caudiciforms, pachycauls, etc.) are becoming more
and more popular being planted in bonsai pots. They have a lot of character
due to their exposed bulbous bodies. They are not as easy to train as
traditional trees and I don't know if they would even qualify as true bonsai
but some of the ones I've seen really work well in this scale in bonsai
pots. I've seen a few stunning Desert Rose (Adenium obesum) done as bonsai.

I'd be curious to know what other list members think of various succulents
and caudiciforms being planted in bonsai style. I've seen several types
being offered at serious dedicated bonsai nurseries but always wondered if
was just to garner some sales because they are a bit atypical and bizarre
compared to most peoples notion of bonsai. I grow a number of caudiciforms
in bonsai pots but I don't really consider them bonsai, the pots just suit
them and work well with them.

As the scope of the art or hobby (or whatever)
expands, there will be more and more non-bonsai in
bonsai pots.

The classicists will never accept these as bonsai, but
if you live in a place where this is what will live in
your situation, I say go on and have fun.

I used to have a grove of sago palms, but the frost
got it one year. I have started looking and
collecting for a new grove....some day.
