It thrives along the margins of ponds, lakes and slow-moving rivers, where its distinctive sword-shaped leaves emerge from creeping underground rhizomes. Although superficially similar to irises, Sweet Flag is more closely related to one of the oldest surviving lineages of flowering plants. The fragrant rhizome has been valued for centuries and possesses a warm, spicy aroma with notes reminiscent of cinnamon, ginger and citrus.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe use of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAcorus calamus\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e can be traced back thousands of years and spans many cultures, including the herbal traditions of Europe, India and East Asia.
