Acorus gramineus variegata

Japanese rush, Sweet Flag

The Acorus gramineus variegata is only partly evergreen and likes growing on the margins of ponds and rivers. This perennial has pretty white and green flax-like foliage, which lies in flattened rows. The stiff, grassy tufts form a low mound of narrow sword-shaped leaves, striped lengthwise. Great for edging around small ponds. A beautiful accent plant for a moist rock garden or beside a pool or stream. Prefers semi-shade and tolerates very wet conditions.
