Calamus (Acorus calamus) seeds

C-D

(Sweet Flag, Rights What's Wrong Herb)
Family: Arum (Araceae)
Hardy to -30 degrees F
Perennial monocot water plant. Our cultivar is a low beta asarone strain originally from the northern prairie states. This plant was widely disseminated and naturalized into many new environs by the Native Americans, who made great use of it as a medicinal and in basketry. The bitter and aromatic rhizome is an effective digestive aid and is also used to sharpen the mind.
After chewing a bit of calamus, water never tasted better. Ground calamus root smoked by saddhus to clear the head after too much indulgence in charras or bhang. Plant prefers full sun to part shade and grows in or near water and sometimes grows in mucky ground that is not inundated. We like to use calamus between ponds in waterways, as it filters and cleanses the water that runs through it. Can be used similarly in greywater treatment areas. Sow in spring, using regular greenhouse technique, or sow in a carefully prepared seedbed and transplant to water's edge once the monocots reach 4 inches tall. 200 seeds/pkt., Open Pollinated
