I need this for a school project that is due Friday. Are there different types of horsetails like there are different types of flowers?

There are horsetails, and there are scouring rushes... two different groups of Equisetum species.

Equisetum species are proclaimed as State Prohibited Weeds in Victoria. This means that Equisetum spp. are to be eradicated from the State. Equisetum spp. are proclaimed weeds throughout Australia except for NT and ACT, while E. arvense is proclaimed in ACT. Horsetails are not known to be naturalised in Victoria but have been on sale at Victorian nurseries and markets. They are present in some gardens, particularly in association with ponds and other water features.
That's on type I know.

Oh yes.
Some are quite large and are unbranched, others are small, heavily branched, and resemble grass to the common observer.
Also called scouring rush, Equisetum sp., etc.
