Vari Lime Rush Acorus gramineus (Terrarium Only Plant)

Vari Lime Rush (Acorus gramineus) is a striking, variegated grass-like perennial from eastern Asia, featuring slender, upright leaves in vivid lime green and cream tones that bring a bright, eye-catching contrast to terrariums and paludariums. Its compact, tufting habit makes it an excellent foreground or midground accent, adding colour and texture without dominating the scape. Easy to care for and highly adaptable, it’s a rewarding choice for both beginners and experienced hobbyists.

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