Also known as variegated Acorus, this terrarium plant is sometimes used as an aquarium plant. Acorus gramineus ‘variegatus’ can handle short stays in an aquarium, but should be taken out for rejuvenation period. Variegated Acorus works well as a pond plant around the edges of a water garden, or in moist areas of the yard.
