Ponytail

[Snogoose]

Please
Can anybody tell me what a very young Ponytail plants bulb thing looks like.
I know what it looks like a little bit older, but I have had this young
plant given to me that is supposed to be a Ponytail, but its bottom looks
more like a roundish bulb.
TIA

Thanks Adrian, I didn't think I was being hoodwinked but the round bulb had
me puzzled. Looks like I have a long wait for mine to be 1.5m tall.
