Acorus Ogon, commonly known as Slender Sweet Flag, is a distinctive and attractive perennial known for its vibrant, golden-yellow foliage and grass-like appearance. This cultivar of Acorus features narrow, arching leaves that maintain their bright yellow colour throughout the growing season, adding a bold splash of colour to garden borders, water gardens, or containers. Typically growing to a height of 1/2 metre, with a similar spread, Acorus Ogon is perfect for creating a low, striking ground cover or accenting other plants.

Acorus Ogon Care

To ensure your Acorus Ogon thrives, plant it in a location that receives full sun. It is adaptable to various soil types but prefers consistently moist, well-drained soil. In garden settings, it performs well near ponds or in damp areas, but it can also be grown in containers with regular watering.

Regular watering is important to keep the soil moist, especially during dry periods, as Acorus Ogon does not tolerate drought well. Applying a balanced, slow-release fertiliser in early spring can support robust growth and vibrant foliage. Minimal pruning is needed, but removing any dead or damaged leaves will help maintain the plant’s appearance. With the right care, this perennial will offer continuous beauty and a splash of golden colour throughout the growing season.
