(Horsetail)
Commonly known as horsetail, foxtail, or scouring rush, Equisetum is a genus consisting of 15-species of flowerless perennials that exist in all areas worldwide save Australasia and the poles.
Equisetums reproduce by spores borne on cone-like structures. Their erect stems are hollow and distinctly jointed often with whorls of leaves radiating from the uppermost joints. Overall, plants have a fine almost bamboo-like appearance, and most spread rapidly by rhizomes.
With a history dating back...

(Horsetail)
This ancient plant is flowerless and spreads by rhizomes. Commonly called horsetail, it is a hardy evergreen perennial that consists of fine, hollow, green stems divided by black-rimmed joints. It has a broad natural distribution and can be found growing in temperate regions throughout North America and Eurasia.
Horsetail prefers moist to wet organic-rich soil and will tolerate full sun to partial sun. It can become invasive if not properly contained or maintained and looks best in naturalistic...

(Dwarf Horsetail, Dwarf Scouringrush)
Dwarf horsetail is a fast growing evergreen perennial native to North America, Europe and eastern Asia. It is grown for its short green rushlike hollow stems with black bands. Rather than flowers, in late summer and autumn, a small light brown reproductive structure (called a strobilus) appears on each stem tip.
Dwarf horsetail loves moisture and is often seen in impressive colonies in bogs, low, wet soils or in shallow water such as lake or streamside. As it is an indefinite spreading plant thicket,...

(Weeping Lovegrass)
The clump-forming weeping lovegrass has fine, grassy blades that arch and droop and produces many tall stems of feathery flowers in late summer. This warm-season perennial grass hails from East Africa, so it is tough and tolerant of heat and drought.
Though native to a semi-tropical area, weeping lovegrass is usually fully deciduous but can remain semi-evergreen in fully frost-free climates. Its neat clumps of elegant foliage appear in spring. Airy panicles of lavender-gray flowers bloom in...

(Elliott's Lovegrass)
Silvery blue, finely-textured, evergreen leaves and masses of tiny, wispy flowers give Elliott's lovegrass an attractive, hazy look in summer. This lovely perennial bunch grass is native to the southeastern United States and islands of the upper Caribbean where it inhabit coastal lands and dry prairies.
Elliott's lovegrass produces relatively low, clumps of wiry, blue-green blades in tones of silvery gray. It blooms sporadically through the year but tends to flower the heaviest in fall. Scores...
