Mare's Tail
Hippuris vulgaris
Attractive low growing vertical bottle brush type stems rise out of the water. Please note this is not the invasive plant Equisetum arvense (field horsetail) which it is sometimes confused with.
This plant is evergreen and will retain some stems/leaves throughout winter.
The recommended depth in water is calculated as the distance between the top of the basket and the water surface. Therefore "0" would be the basket rim at the water surface.
Example plant photos taken in March 2021.
This plant is supplied in a standard plastic plant pot. It will benefit from being repotted into a mesh basket. See our range here.
