We have a 25 year old 30" ponytail that started growing two sideshoots about two years ago - the growth was so subtle that we have really taken notice only recently. Both shoots are about 8" high and an inch or so in diameter at their base. Can we sever these growths at the base or should we just leave them alone? The main plant appears very healthy. BTW, we have another ponytail that is about 37" and about 32 years old and it is beautiful and appears to be very health.Both have survived multiple moves.
Thanks for any information.

I would leave the plant like that. Don't touch it. Let nature do the job and keep taking care of it.

Thanks - It just doesn't look very good with the growths - wish I had noticed them when they first started.
