If this Ponytail Palm rots, it's definitely my last one. I feel like it's gonna be ok, though. I want to name it! (Suggestions welcome!)
I repotted it. I removed all of the moist store dirt from it. I potted it into a terracotta pot from the plastic pot it came in. I added grit, lava stone, and perlite to my cactus and succulent bag mix to make it more well-draining. The pot has a large drain hole and is about the same size as the pot it was in. I also potted it sitting up higher so the base barely, and I mean BARELY, has dirt around it. I was actually shocked it stayed upright.
I'm gonna give it a few days to settle before watering.
If I ruin this one, I don't know. I just don't know.
