Description
Commonly known as Monkey Grass or Lilyturf, Liriope forms a dense green and yellow variegated groundcover with a grass-like appearance. Liriope bears striking spikes of lavender flowers in summer and naturalizes in nearly any setting. Thriving in difficult areas and a wide range of climates, this low-growing perennial is an excellent problem-solver for the landscape. Its compact, clumping habit is perfect between pavers, in borders or as a spiller in mixed containers. This remarkably tough plant is virtually maintenance-free and heat and drought tolerant once established.
