Equiseta
(gcide) | Equisetum \Eq`ui*se"tum\, n.; pl. Equiseta. [L., the
horsetail, fr. equus horse + seta a thick,, stiff hair,
bristle.] (Bot.)
A genus of vascular, cryptogamic, herbaceous plants; -- also
called horsetails.
[1913 Webster]
Note: The Equiseta have hollow jointed stems and no true
leaves. The cuticle often contains siliceous granules,
so that one species (E. hyemale) is used for scouring
and polishing, under the name of Dutch rush or
scouring rush.
