Botany

Also known as "Venus herb", ​​calamus is a completely aromatic aquatic plant resembling a reed; it has saber-shaped leaves and small, yellow-green flowers. Growing to about one meter tall, it grows along the edges of lakes and rivers. Native to India, it is found abundantly in Russia and, in smaller quantities, also in Siberia, China, and the Balkan Peninsula.
