Green Rush Acorus gramineus (Terrarium Only Plant)

Green Rush (Acorus gramineus) is a compact, grass-like perennial native to eastern Asia, prized for its neat, upright tufts of bright green, strap-shaped leaves. Its tidy, architectural form makes it an ideal accent plant for terrariums and paludariums, where it adds a natural, meadow-like texture without overwhelming the scape. Hardy and unfussy, it’s a fantastic choice for beginners looking to create a lush, living environment.

Propagation: Propagates by division — simply separate the rhizome into smaller clumps, each with healthy roots and leaves, and replant directly into the substrate.
