Scientific Name:
 
Acorus gramineus var. variegatus
 
The varieties of Rush that are grown at Pisces Enterprises are all cultivars of Acorus Gramineus, which is native to the wetlands and shallow streams of eastern continental Asia and Japan.
It is a popular plant both in ponds where it straddles the water’s edge, as well as aquariums where its long, waxy leaves make for a striking midground plant.
This plant can be easily propagated by splitting off and replanting new clumps.
