    I’ve always been a fan of the prehistoric plants ( though if I’m being pedantic the vast majority of plants are prehistoric). Araucaria and Dicksonia are the best of the best!

      Looks like horsetail to me.

      Edit: lol, I should have read all the names first. Apparently horsetail descends from it.
