According to the original manual for ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', [[Bowser]] turned the citizens of the Mushroom Kingdom into horsetail plants and [[brick]]s. However, the English manual renders this as "field horsehair plants".<ref>[http://legendsoflocalization.com/super-mario-bros/manuals/#characters-enemies Legends of Localization] comparing the Japanese and North American storylines of ''Super Mario Bros.''</ref> They are presumably the ovoid tree-like plants seen throughout the game (specifically, Worlds [[World 2 (Super Mario Bros.)|2]], [[World 3 (Super Mario Bros.)|3]], [[World 5 (Super Mario Bros.)|5]], [[World 7 (Super Mario Bros.)|7]], and [[World 8 (Super Mario Bros.)|8]]), which come in two sizes, and depending on the level's palette, can be either green or white (in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'', the white ones' appearance is due to snow), with both having a tan segmented stem. These plants are also seen in ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'' (specifically, the odd-numbered and -lettered worlds), where they are now segmented themselves and have eyes; additionally, the ones in [[World A-1]] appear in orange (but not in ''All-Stars''). They also appear in several other games borrowing graphics from ''Super Mario Bros.'' In ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', Horsetails occasionally pop up in the ground theme in the ''Super Mario Bros.'' style.

In ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', Horsetails are items that heal 3 [[Heart Point|HP]]. They are found in an area of [[Petal Meadows]]. Just before reaching the area with the bridge, coming from the [[Rogueport]] pipe, there is a [[Candy Cane]] that, when hit with a [[hammer]], sinks down and bounces back up. After hitting the cane 10 times, a Horsetail comes out. This can be done several times, after exiting and re-entering the area.
