a bunch.
I'd put them in the ground now or put them in water.
Please *leave* my green metal bucket/basket.
*"Equisetum* is the single surviving genus of a class of primitive vascular
plants that dates back to the mid-Devonian period (350 + million years
ago)."

They do best in damp areas, but I think a cluster would look great along an
alley. They are essentially evergreen tubes that look like stacked straws.
We use them in flower arrangements too.
They do spread from runners, so every few years I dig out clusters to share.
Available at the alley on 44th Street between 33rd and 32nd Ave - right
across from St. Helena's school.
Thanks,
Steve
