Ophiopogon japonicus Mondo grass is an evergreen perennial that is actually a member of the lily family despite its appearance and common name. They are rigid and curve back toward the ground ("recurve") and resemble blades of turf grass. Leaves emerge in clumps from a network of rhizomes that grow just below the soil surface. With age the clumps will merge to form a soft dense carpet of foliage. In summer small light purple flowers are produced but are of little interest as they are hidden in the dense foliage as are the small blue-black berries that follow. |
