Close up of Field Horsetail, Equisetum arvense.
A key characteristic, not shown, is the cross section of the stem. The tubular pattern is unique to species.
Specimen is stressed.
Only 15 species of Equisetum worldwide. 10 in Northeast US with a few hybrids.

I love that horsetails have been around for hundreds of millions of years. When I was a kid I was fascinated that there used to be tree-sized horsetails.

Mind blown by horsetails. These ancient plants were here with the dinosaurs! 🤯 Their stems are so unique. Nature is wild. #Botany #PlantFacts #Equisetum #photography #BlueSkyArtShow #Texture

A deep black expanse of new-ish asphalt, rain-slick, next to a grey concrete power pole base, is being punctured in innumerable places by the brilliant green pointy cone shaped tips of emerging Giant Horsetail fronds (Equisetum telmateia, possibly ssp braunii). The funny thing is there used to be a tidy clump of horsetails for years next to the pole, when the road was compacted gravel. The new impermeable surface of the paving seems to have triggered some kind of frantic rhizome expansion, and now there are new fronds lifting through the surface daily in about an 8ft radius. I keep crooning over them in amazed and admiring delight - how can they be so strong, when they fall to bits if touched? - but I can assure you I'm the only one. Everyone else is super annoyed that the new road is being wrecked.
A close up of the brilliant green pointy cone shaped tips of emerging Giant Horsetail fronds (Equisetum telmateia, possibly ssp braunii) poking though inch-thick new-ish rain-wet black asphalt. The delicate segmented fronds expand immediately as they poke through, some are still furled like green lances, some have expanded like little bomb-explosions of greenery, with chunks of road crumbled around them. Sorry for the blurriness, it was rainy and my pocket was soaked so my camera sensor was steamy and I didn't realise. Aren't they cute? I love this plant (oh! it's a Giant Horsetail, Equisetum telmateia), native and *gorgeous*, a fantastic structural plant, but you can see why no one encourages it in their cottage gardens, since it might also show up in the kitchen floor. Definitely ideally enjoyed in marshy parts of the forest along the coast, where it thrives. Though I first fell in love with horsetails at camp in the Rockies as a kid, so different species are all over Western Canada at all elevations, and all tough as nails!
"Inch thick asphalt? Pfft, this is nothin! Back in the day it'd be a 4m deep cooled lava flow, and when we finally poked through we'd get trodden on by Stegosaurus!" (the horsetails are poking through the new road at work! They're so pretty and tough)

A branch of horsetail (a very ancient type of fern), recently sprouted, sticks straight out of the ground with all its "beards" on the sides. Numerous droplets of water sparkle hanging from the beards, like beads.
Equisetum (Horsetail) decorated with tiny droplets after an abundant night fog. Among the oldest plants on Earth, horsetail also has excellent properties and some species are edible. You don't see it often around here, so I was pleased to find it 😊

Here's an illustration of an #Equisetum, which I did for @palaeogames.bsky.social new #RPG rulebook. I've been working a lot on Equisetum recently, but unfortunately, I can't share any of it yet (beyond what's on patreon). Hopefully, I can share more soon. #FossilFriday #paleoart

A photograph of some developing horsetail stems growing out of a plant bed, with creeping jenny (ground cover plant with pairs of round leaves along thin stems) underneath. An osmunda leaf and some dead nettles are in the background.
I've been thinking about #Equisetum this evening... and I've been doing some *very* basic maths on them which have already given some interesting preliminary results... with some paleoartistic implications👀.

If I could go back in time I'd visit the giant horsetail forests of the Carboniferous #Equisetum @fossilplants http://t.co/NcymaJCLCX
