Climbing Cactus
Epiphyllum phyllanthus
Epiphyllum phyllanthus, commonly known as the Climbing Cactus or Orchid Cactus, is a tropical epiphytic cactus from the family Cactaceae, native to the forests of Central and South America. Unlike desert cacti, it grows on trees in humid, shaded environments and produces large, white, fragrant flowers that bloom only at night.
Flame Violet
Episcia reptans
Episcia reptans, commonly known as Flame Violet or Chocolate Soldier, is a creeping tropical plant in the Gesneriaceae family, native to the rainforests of the Brazilian Amazon and Colombia. Its velvety dark-green leaves with silver markings and vibrant scarlet tubular flowers make it one of the most striking houseplants available. It spreads naturally via stolons, creating a lush cascading display perfect for hanging baskets.
Field Horsetail
Equisetum arvense
Field horsetail (Equisetum arvense) is an ancient, non-flowering perennial in the Equisetaceae family, part of a plant lineage that predates the dinosaurs. It produces two types of stems: pale, unbranched fertile stems that appear in early spring and bear spore cones, followed by bushy green sterile stems with whorled branches that persist through summer. Rich in silica, its hollow, jointed stems were historically used to scour pots and polish metal. A vigorous, deep-rooted rhizomatous spreader, it is considered a persistent weed in gardens and farmland but is also valued as a traditional medicinal herb.
Rough Horsetail
Equisetum hyemale
Equisetum hyemale, commonly known as rough horsetail or scouring rush, is an evergreen, non-flowering perennial in the ancient Equisetaceae family. Its hollow, jointed, bamboo-like stems grow upright to 1-1.8 m and stay a striking dark green year-round, ringed with black-and-tan banded nodes. As a spore-bearing pteridophyte, it never produces flowers or seeds; instead, small cone-like strobili form at the stem tips and release spores. The species spreads vigorously through branching underground rhizomes, forming dense colonies that make it an excellent architectural accent for wet, boggy sites or contained water features, though its aggressive spread means it should almost always be planted in a pot or behind a root barrier.
Horsetail
Equisetum spp
Horsetail (Equisetum spp) is one of the most ancient plant genera on Earth, with fossil records dating back over 300 million years. A primitive vascular plant that reproduces via spores rather than seeds, it belongs to the family Equisetaceae. Its jointed, hollow, green stems — rich in silica — are its most distinctive feature. Cosmopolitan in distribution, it naturally colonizes moist soils, riverbanks, and wetlands on nearly every continent. Widely used in traditional medicine and increasingly popular in contemporary ornamental gardening.
Little lovegrass
Eragrostis minor
Eragrostis minor, commonly known as little lovegrass, is an annual C4 metabolism grass species native to Europe that has since become a widespread weed globally.
