Acorus calamus (commonly known as Sweet Flag or Calamus) is native to China and distributed across both northern and southern regions. Main varieties include 'Huxu' (Tiger Whisker) and 'Huangjinji' (Golden Princess), displaying colors ranging from light green to emerald and dark green. Alongside orchids, chrysanthemums, and narcissus, it is honored as one of the "Four Elegant Plants" in Chinese culture. For ancient scholars, the ultimate pursuit of refinement lay in four simple joys: a pot of tea, a wisp of incense, a zither, and a pot of Acorus.
In southern China, Acorus is revered as an ideal plant for warding off evil spirits and repelling insects. In the Jiangnan region (south of the Yangtze River), it is cultivated in almost every home. Its ornamental value is exceptionally high, especially when crafted into bonsai — a form that significantly enhances its worth. Caring for Acorus is relatively simple: it thrives in moisture, so regular misting is essential. The optimal temperature range is 20–30°C; temperatures outside this range won’t kill the plant but may slow its growth.
Due to its commonality, Acorus remains very affordable. If you enjoy tea ceremonies or spend long hours before computers or books, keeping a pot of Acorus is highly recommended. Not only does it cultivate mindfulness, but it also eases eye strain, making it both practical and poetic. Acorus is celebrated as "a premium plant of elegant and serene temperament" — truly worth owning.
