ACORUS<br />
Acorus is an ancient genus, yet its contemporary look lends itself to modern landscapes and applications.<br />
Most plants in this grasslike genus prefer wet or moist areas. The two selections we grow<br />
add vibrant color and visual texture. It’s interesting to note that early societies made compounds <strong>of</strong><br />
Acorus roots and leaves to treat maladies such as colds and heart disorders. The leaves <strong>of</strong> Acorus<br />
also emit a fresh citrus scent when pinched or bruised.<br />
Acorus gramineus ‘Minimus Aureus’<br />
Acorus gramineus 'Ogon'<br />
GOLDEN VARIEGATED SWEET FLAG<br />
Its golden leaves with green stripes brighten<br />
shady spots and moist, sunny areas. Grows in a<br />
tufted mound <strong>of</strong> grasslike, narrow blades. Plant<br />
in moist areas for a dense ground cover or use to<br />
accent water features or ponds. Spreads slowly<br />
by rhizomes. Prefers constant moisture; dry<br />
spells may cause leaf tips to brown.<br />
Acorus gramineus 'Minimus Aureus'<br />
DWARF GOLDEN VARIEGATED SWEET FLAG<br />
A terrific dwarf Sweet Flag that creates a beautiful<br />
mat <strong>of</strong> bright green and gold. Grows in sun<br />
with moist-wet conditions (not standing water);<br />
likes afternoon shade in very hot climates. If in<br />
part shade, can tolerate drier soil, but do not let<br />
it dry out. Spreads slowly by rhizomes to make<br />
a ground cover for damp areas or between stepping<br />
stones.<br />
