Close-up of Field Horsetail: Spring Vitality of a Medicinal Herb

Description

A close-up of the reproductive stem of a field horsetail (Equisetum arvense): the strobilus, interwoven with brown and off-white hues, stands upright at the top of the reddish-brown segmented stem like an exquisite spike structure. Withered brown sheath-like scales remain at the base of the stem, with a rough texture yet exuding wild charm. The background is a hazy, blurred tender green meadow, where warm yellow light creates a soft spring atmosphere, as if one can smell the fresh breath of nature. This wild herb not only showcases the simple texture of medicinal plants but also reveals the vitality of spring wild charm, highlighting its unique form and natural beauty.
