Q.My Large Outdoor In Ground Ponytail Palm Has New Growth Growing Straight Up. Is This Normal/ Healthy?
Last year it bloomed in the exact location of the new growth. Is the tree healthy or is this a sign of illness or duress? Please see attached photo. Thank you!

I think it looks fine. I looked online and saw others with that same growth pattern. Here are some general care tips:
