Thanks, Chris ji. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Chris Fraser-Jenkins Date: 6 January 2017 at 15:27 Subject: Re: Fwd: [efloraofindia:259632] Equisetum for ID :: Thane :: ARKDEC22 To: "J.M. Garg" <[email protected]>
It rather depends how tall it is - would I be right in thinking it's a really tall, if not enormous plant, 10 to 15 ft high or more? If so then it would be the exotic S. American E. robustum, which is occasionally grown in Botanic Gardens. But if not very big, there is the common E. ramosissimum from throughout India (with rather insignificant forms ramosissimum and debile) - both these species are in the section Hippochaete with hard stems and pointed tops to the "cones". But I don't think E. ramosissimum normally has so much nice coloration on the sheathes, so probably, if it's big enough. it should be E. robustum. If I remember rightly it was also grown in the fern-house at the National Botanical Research Institute gardens in Lucknow. Best wishes, Chris F.-J. ------------------------------ *From:* J.M.
