Acorus Ogon withstands damp to wet soils and prefers shady sites, which gives it an advantage over many grasses. In fact this plant can be grown 'in' water making it perfect for garden ponds.

I've got these plant in and around my garden pond and have seen no serious insect, pest or disease problems. When growing in the ground, provide supplemental water during prolonged periods of dry weather during summer.
