Acorus Ogon

About this product

Acorus 'Ogon' brings vivid golden-yellow variegated foliage in a fine, grass-like clump that lends bright color and soft texture to any composition. This tough, adaptable performer thrives in moist and even boggy conditions where many grasses struggle, making it a reliable choice for water features and shade-to-part-sun plantings. Sold in a case of 10 4.5" pots, it moves quickly at retail on foliage color alone.
