Horsetail. Most striking picture Lucy.

Thanks Hermes.

Makes sense - it's like Mare's Tail only very much larger and taller.

Really stands out.

Hello Faye.

These plants with pre-historic links are fascinating, aren't they?

An interesting photo! I've never seen anything like this.

Kinda looks like something in the bamboo family.

Lucy Corrander said...

Pat - Pictures like this don't give any impression of size. I am familiar with plants like this about nine inches high but this is a couple of feet and is new to me too.

Marka - I see why you are reminded of bamboo.

Great shot Lucy! It looks like some kind of alien plant life.

Hello Chuck.

I agree. This kind of plant would be good in a second rate (but fun to watch none the less!) movie!
