  • Remember when I asked my dad about his first plant? This video shows him repotting that ponytail Palm into a brand new custom made pot he made for it. He felt bad that it was just sitting in the corner so it was time to showcase it. Watch as he repots, prunes and cleans it up to see how much nicer it looks. We also show a sneak peak of our upcoming Instagram giveaway.
    The discount shown code at the end of the video is a one time discount, thanks for watching!
    Hope you enjoy + let us know what you think!
    We love all the comments and questions.

    Yeah, I remember this video! That Pony Tail totally deserves a spotlight. What a beauty! I love your caudex collection as well as the pots you create. I am thinking of taking a pottery class to get started and make my own pots for my plants and caudexes. Well done! I am excited cause I recently got two Pony Tails and they are so pretty. I hope I don't kill them. I think they prefer the outdoors.

    I’ve seen webbing on a couple of the plants including the pony tail palm. Is it regular spider webs?

      Hi there. Yes, those are spiderwebs, they’re very abundant this time of year and persistent, but they don’t harm the plant in anyway.

    Hi what is the mixture of soil is Robert using?

      Hello, he uses cactus mix and adds 50 to 60% pumice for significantly improved drainage. Thanks for the question!

      @@PotsbyRobert can we use vermiculite?

      My dad’s response is…”I would not recommend vermiculite as it is porous and will retain moisture which is contraindicated for succulents. Perlite is a good substitute for pumice.” Hope that helps!
