Liriope 'Big Blue' 1pc – National Plant Network – U.S.D.A. Hardiness Zones 5 – 10

Product Description

Commonly known as Monkey Grass, Liriope forms a dense evergreen groundcover with a grass-like appearance. Liriope bears striking spikes of lavender flowers in summer and naturalizes 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. The compact clumping nature of ‘Big Blue’ is perfect between pavers, in borders, or as a “spiller” in mixed containers. This remarkably tough plant is virtually maintenance-free and is heat and drought tolerant once established.
