Use Mare's Tail as a small gap filler, as its vine-like sructure weaves in and around shallow, rocky areas in streams and bogs. Its short, pointed leaves are densely arranged on upright stems, resembling miniature evergreen trees. Mare's Tail will reach a maximum height of 8-16 inches in water up to 8 inches deep. Though tropical, it will retain much of its green coloration well into the Fall.
