| | | Teesdale Rare Hybrid Horsetail
Does anyone know which Hybrid horsetail this is? 
We were told about it by an expert botanist but he said he couldn't remember the name. He said that its possibly the hybrid between Wood and Shady Horsetail. |

It looks like the Shade Horsetail Equisetum pratense. What is the reason for thinking it's a hybrid? |

I think this is the reason I choose not to go into these    |

Just a bit of feedback. The guy who told us about it also thinks its the Shade Horsetail as well. He was also shown the site by another expert 50 years ago and this man said it was a hybrid. But the man who took us says its the Shade.  | | |
