As we wear running through a trail unknown to the public I found some tiny horsetail, but unlike the one at home you could barley see it. This horsetail is dense and cluster of green and jointed with hollow stalks with many whorls of narrow jointed branches. You can find these horsetails in streams mostly and in the back of people’s yards. I decided to do this observation on the horsetail; back home epically where I live there is plenty of horsetail. If I recall it starts out like a little three and very thin. In a couple of days it either keeps on growing or it just starts to sprouts its little branches. The thing about this horsetail is that if you try to remove it, eventually it will come back and back and never really leaves. It seems odd that I would encounter such a spore plant.
