GRASS Acorus

Sold by 1 gallon pot

Acorus gramineus is not a grass but is grown as an ornamental grass for its foliage. Acorus gramineus grows well in many conditions including wet, boggy sites and actually prefers damp soil. This plant can handle up to 4 inches of standing water; it does not perform well in dry soils. Even though Acorus gramineus likes full sun, it does not like the heat: make sure that it can have shade in the afternoon or even just dappled sunlight to avoid the intensity of the afternoon sun if the climate is quite hot. When planting, space 8-12 inches apart. This plant spreads by rhizomes.
