Where They Do Well:
Horsetail Reed Grass loves water, so it does really well in ponds or marshy areas. You will see quite a few of these in our designs, around water features or with irrigation systems to keep them well hydrated. They are quite hearty and can put up with a lot of wind and sun.
Maintenance:
Dig out any unwanted shoots from the root, and don’t be afraid to be a little rigorous with them.
