Horsetails, or "scouring rushes" as they are sometimes called, are fairly easy targets when I get in one of my "arty" moods. Why "scouring" rushes? Because their stems take up a lot of gritty silica from the soil. If several are gathered in a bundle and a flat surface is cut on the ends, they can be used as an abrasive scouring pad for pots and pans.

Oh yeah, leaves are easy artistic subjects also.

And you might have your own opinion, but maybe these "Naked Ladies" are more beautiful than they are artistic--but I definitely couldn't pass up the opportunity.
