Sweetflag, also known as Acorus calamus, is a delightful and versatile addition to any pond or water garden. This hardy marginal plant is prized for its striking appearance and a range of beneficial properties. This plant comes with three options: 

Golden Sweetflag: Vibrant golden-yellow foliage
Variegated Sweetflag:
Vibrant green & white foliage
Dwarf Variegated Sweetflag:
Shorter, Vibrant green & white foliage

Appearance: Sweetflag features long, narrow, sword-like leaves that grow in dense clumps, adding texture and vertical interest to your pond's edge. The leaves are a vibrant green, providing a beautiful contrast to the water's surface.

Growth Habit: This plant is a perennial, meaning it will return year after year with minimal care. It thrives in moist to wet soil and can even tolerate shallow water, making it ideal for planting at the water's edge or in shallow areas of your pond.

Benefits: Sweetflag is not only aesthetically pleasing but also offers several benefits to your pond ecosystem. The plant provides valuable habitat and shelter for aquatic wildlife, including fish and beneficial insects. Additionally, its dense root system helps prevent soil erosion along the pond's edge.

Care: Sweetflag is relatively low maintenance, requiring only regular watering to keep the soil moist. It can be grown in full sun to partial shade, making it adaptable to a variety of pond environments.

Propagation: Propagating Sweetflag is easy and can be done by dividing the plant's rhizomes in early spring or fall. This allows you to expand your plantings or share with fellow pond enthusiasts.

Uses: Beyond its ornamental value, Sweetflag has a long history of medicinal and culinary uses. The plant's rhizomes contain aromatic oils and have been used in herbal medicine and as a flavoring agent in cooking.

Great sunscreen & works for kids - even used in resorts!
Style: SPF 50
Terrific! I don’t feel it is as good as chemical ones but my favorite non-chemical one. Used on a long vacation and it did the job! Also didn’t cause pimples like other thick versions of this.

Protection
Style: SPF 50
I love this product, especially my husband because it’s all-natural. It contains minerals that leave a slight white residue on the face. While it would be nice to have a clearer texture, it does a beautiful job of protecting you from the sun.

Worked well near the equator
Style: SPF 50
I bought this product because I was going to be in the field for a month, outside, every day, all day, in Tanzania at high altitude. A severe sunburn would be hard to treat in the remote area we were in, but also I am very careful about protecting my skin from aging. I had to have mineral based sunscreen because as a whitewater kayaker I know it’s the only truly water resistant kind and it was going to be sweaty. And since I knew I was going to be putting it on every day, and we didn’t have running water in the field (bucket showers only) I didn’t want it to feel gross. (I really wanted to try the spray but I didn’t want to put anything pressurized in my luggage.) And I had already discovered the Coola face sunscreen (30spf version) which had impressed me with how silky smooth and not greasy it is. Now this IS greasier because it is a higher SPF. BUT I think this product is as good as you’re going to get with the protection you’re getting. Like I said, I’m a white water tiger, so I have used a LOT of mineral sunscreens. This was hands down the most comfortable one I’ve used. And it was effective. I didn’t burn once—only time I did burn was when I forgot to put it on one day toward the end of the trip, when we were out for just a couple hours—and I got the first 2nd degree burn I’ve ever had in my life. That was what this stuff had protected me from, all day every day, the entire trip. I did tan a little but I think that was mostly from the few times I was not covered during short bouts or it was cloudy. For my face I used the Coola 50spf face product.

Love this stuff!
Style: SPF 50
I use this every day and I love how it is frangrance free and creamy. I have a very fair complexion and I will say it leaves a slight white cast but it doesn’t bother me because it almost makes my fairness more creamy looking. My skin texture has improved since wearing it daily and no allergies from it. I highly recommend especially if you have fairer skin otherwise it may leave a cast .

Excellent mineral sunscreen with minimal white cast.
Style: SPF 50
This is one of the healthier sunscreens I’ve found so far. You’re not likely going to find a mineral sunscreen that doesn’t leave some white cast. However, this one rubs in pretty good with minimal cast. You can dab on and rub in fairly easily… as long as you don’t use too much the white cast should be minimal. I am not sure how well this would work on darker skin tones. My arms are a medium skin tone… my legs are more of a light-medium tone. I prefer mineral sunscreens, and this is the best one I found so far and compatible to Supergoop mineral play. If you liked that one, you would likely enjoy this Coola one too.
