Can ponytail palm plants be divided?

Ponytail palm plants (Beaucarnea recurvata) cannot be easily divided like some other houseplants, as they grow from a single trunk and do not produce offsets. Instead, they are typically propagated through seeds or by taking cuttings of the trunk, although the latter method is less common and can be challenging. If you want to create new plants, it's best to focus on seed propagation or wait for offsets, which may occasionally appear at the base of the plant.
