Description

This stunning perennial plant, Equisetum hyemale, commonly known as Scouring Rush Horsetail, is a favorite among homeowners seeking to add texture and interest to their outdoor spaces.

With its unique vertical growth habit and slender green stems, this plant makes a striking addition to any landscape design. Whether planted in containers on your patio or placed strategically in your garden beds, Scouring Rush Horsetail will undoubtedly become a focal point in your outdoor space.

As a homeowner looking to elevate the ambiance of your outdoor living environment with minimal effort, Scouring Rush Horsetail requires little maintenance once established. Thriving in moist soil conditions with partial shade to full sun exposure, this plant is versatile and adaptable to various growing environments.

Equisetum hyemale is naturally found along river edges and low-lying wet areas throughout North America. This vertical, grass-like plant has many slender hollow jointed stems that are bright green with a ring of black and grey fringe at each stem node. The branchless, flowerless stems spread by rhizomes. With a regular watering schedule, Scouring Rush Horsetail will grow well in either sun or shade.

Useful in water gardens or low-lying wet areas, Equisetum hyemale can spread aggressively due to its vigorous growth habit and may be considered a nuisance in some areas of your garden. To control its spread, grow Scouring Rush Horsetail in containers.

Bring the tranquility and serenity of nature into your outdoor space with Equisetum hyemale. Its sleek appearance, uniqueness, and low-maintenance qualities make it the perfect choice.
