Golden Sweet Flag – Acorus Gramineus ‘Ogon’ – 1 Gallon Pot

---

Growing 10 to 12 inches tall and spreading slowly by rhizomes to 15 inches or more wide, Golden Sweet Flag is a perfect choice for use as a bright accent, border edger or groundcover in consistently moist to wet sites. It looks great around rocks and boulders around the garden pond and can even be grown in a container situated at the margins of the pond. Also nice as a grassy-textured and colorful accent in combination container gardens with other plants that like a moist soil and part shade to shade. A colorful addition to bog gardens and damp areas in ornamental grass gardens, rock gardens, woodland gardens, and yellow theme gardens.  

Suggested Spacing:  12-15 inches for mass plantings;  24 inches or more for space between plants

Golden Sweet Flag is very easy to grow in most any consistently moist to wet soil of average fertility and full sun to part shade. That said, it likes some afternoon shade in warmer climates. Can be grown in pots that are situated at the margins of the garden pond. Acrous is essentially maintenance free. It slowly naturalizes into clumps by spreading roots but is not invasive at all. We rarely fertilize or prune it. In areas that experience colder winters the foliage may need to be groomed or cut back to the ground before new growth emerges in spring.
