Acorus gramineus ‘Variegatus’ is a semi-evergreen grass with arching, sedge-like, yellow and green-striped, variegated leaves. Foliage is sweetly fragrant when pinched or bruised. Grows well in boggy soil. Ornamental Grasses are low-maintenance and grow well in most soil types. They look beautiful, adding color, height and movement to your garden. Variegated Sweet Flag is an excellent companion plant with contrasting foliage.
