Description:
Native to moist places in partial sun to shade, horsetails make attractive accents in a container or around a pond or stream. An aggressive spreader, planting in a pot without drainage holes is recommended unless there is a large area for it to cover. Stalks may rise to 6 feet, and are a dramatic addition to floral arrangements. Deer resistant.
