The detail
Elegant evergreen perennial grass with golden-green foliage that brightens ponds, borders, and shaded gardens all year round.
Acorus gramineus ‘Ogon’ (Golden Variegated Sweet Flag) is a moisture-loving, semi-aquatic perennial prized for its soft, arching leaves striped in yellow and green. Its graceful, grass-like form adds movement, texture, and light to areas where few plants thrive — especially damp or shaded spots near ponds, water features, and boggy beds.
