Ophiopogon japonicus
{50 Bare Root plants}

AKA Japonica, Mondo Grass, Monkey Grass, Lilyturf, Japanese Snake's Beard, Kyoto

Evergreen grasslike clumps or mounds with rich dark green 1/8" leaf blades. Spreads by underground stolons. Insignificant light lilac to white flowers in summer, bright blue glove-shaped berries in fall. One of the plants that produce fruit that attract birds.

Moderate growth rate. Likes fertile, well drained soil, but adapts well. Mature height 6" - 10", spacing 4" - 8".

Mondo grass is an excellent ground cover for shady areas, and the dense mat of roots holds the ground well where runoff is a problem. It is widely used as a border around beds, and is good for edging walkways and defining beds. Dwarf varieties are excellent as a groundcover around shady pools or garden statues: its height will not compete with the feature, dark green will contrast better than a bright green grass, and it will require no mowing. It is also used as an evergreen in planters, mixed with seasonal annuals for color.

Please read about bare root plants (especially the paragraph about bare root grasses) so you know what to expect.
