  1. water horsetail

    Water horsetail, scientifically known as Equisetum fluviatile, is a perennial aquatic plant species from the horsetail family (Equisetaceae). It is characterized by its hollow and bamboo-like jointed stems, which can reach heights of 4 feet. It primarily grows in wet habitats, including ponds, swamps, and the banks of rivers or streams. It's considered invasive in several areas due to its ability to quickly spread and compete with native plants. Its stems are photosynthetic and it reproduces via spores as well as vegetatively through rhizomes. Despite its name, it is not related to horses or their tails.
