How to care for Horsetail
Water. It grows naturally in wet areas and suits low, soggy spots. It can also be set in a water garden.
Size. Grows to about 3 ft, as clumps of upright, hollow, jointed green stems with black rings at each joint.
Pruning. It spreads quickly where it is happy. Growing it in a pot, on land or sunk in a water garden, keeps it from taking over a bed.
Good to know. Two varieties of horsetail are native to Florida. Wildlife, including mammals, eats it. It is often grown alone in a modern container as an architectural accent. The tips bear small, brown cone-like structures that release spores.
