Equisetum laevigatum aka Horsetail

Horsetail requires a bit more attention and knowledge to thrive, making it a suitable plant for those with some gardening experience.

New growth will sprout from the top of the plant as it grows upwards.

Horsetail should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Horsetail loves a well-draining soil. Perlite and vermiculite help with drainage, while coco coir adds organic matter, so a good potting soil mix will have all three. You can improve store-bought soil by adding some perlite to it.

To ensure optimal growth, the Horsetail prefers bright diffused light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.
