Dwarf Sweet Flag (Japanese Sweet Flag)

Plant divisions in moist to wet, slightly acidic soil in partial to full shade — dwarf sweet flag is a compact, grass-like Japanese native widely used as a shade-tolerant groundcover, edging plant, and water garden marginal throughout zone 5–9 gardens. The narrow, arching leaves are evergreen in warmer zones and have a pleasant, sweet-spicy fragrance when brushed or crushed. The golden cultivar 'Ogon' (Ogon Japanese Sweet Flag) is one of the finest shade-brightening plants available: its year-round golden-chartreuse foliage creates a luminous effect in dark corners, along shaded walkways, or at the edge of reflecting pools. 'Pusillus' is an extremely miniature form only 2–3 inches tall used in terrariums and troughs. Tolerates wet feet and very moist conditions but adapts to moderately moist soil in shade; divide every 3–4 years to maintain vigor and spread. Спосіб посадки: Розмноження діленням куща Відстань між рослинами: 6–12 дюймів Висота: 6–14 дюймів
