Equisetum palustre aka Marsh Horsetail

Marsh Horsetail’s native range is Temperate regions of Europe, including Britain, N. America and Asia.

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

Marsh 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 Marsh Horsetail prefers bright indirect 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.

There is no verified data on the toxicity of this plant in the records of Ploi. If any person, including yourself, a family member, or a pet, consume plant material with an uncertain toxicity level, it is advisable to seek the advice of a healthcare expert.

New growth will sprout from the top of the Marsh Horsetail as it grows vertically.
