Sweet flag is a grass-like, rhizome forming, perennial that can grow to 24" high, resembling an iris. This species inhabits perpetually wet areas like the edges of streams and around ponds and lakes. It often shares habitat with the common cat-tail. The thick, erect leaves are very similar in appearance to those of an iris, but with edges that are crimped. Calamus was widely used by Canadian Trappers working for the Hudson Bay Company, using it as a stimulant, chewing a small piece whenever tired. Hardy in zones 4-9. Proper name: Acorus calamus
