Sweetflag is an emergent wetland plant native to the northern United States and Canada with sword-like leaves that spread from the root and grow to about three feet in height. It prefers full sun and consistently moist or wet soil, thriving in up to a foot of standing water, making it a perfect species for shoreline restoration. It spreads by rhizomes and can form dense colonies that look similar to stands of cattail or iris. However, the flower of sweetflag is a fingerlike spadix, and its leaves smell sweet and spicy when broken. Interestingly, sweetflag may be the oldest surviving line of monocots.
