Dear Jason,
Sorry, I meant to type 'Acorus calamus', NOT 'C' (Calla!) palustris! Am
trying to do too many things all at once, and messed up. Dr. Sue Thompson
gave an excellent lecture on these at MOBOT earlier this year, that is where
I got the info on these two species, one native and used by the Native
Indians, the other introduced.
Cheers,
Julius

So, which of these corresponds to Acorus calamus, the species I knew about?
