Today we're going to introduce a plant from a new family, the Horsetail Family (Equisetaceae). There are three species in this area, and all grow near riparian or wetland areas. This one is smooth horsetail (
Equisetum laevigatum), also known as smooth scouring rush. It's perennial and found throughout much of North America.
